This past Sunday was the quarterly meeting for the Rhode Island Steel Guitar
Association. Being a member, I was there with Virginia (Tut Taylor
Virginian) feeding through a mic into the bass amp and Little Maggie
(Magnatone 6-string lap steel) going into my 15 watt Stagg amp. Had the
volume cranked all the way, but Little Maggie did alright in a room full of
PSGs. Virginia turned a few heads herself. Someday, I'll have to get one of
those big amps, but until I get into a band, 15 watts is about all I can
justify.

PS: A prospective new member showed up with her Dad's old Gibson double neck
(8 & 8) non-pedal, so I didn't feel completely alone not having a clutch and
brake to deal with.
