Non-Pedal C6th (& C6th w/added A7th)
The Solos were recorded to fill a void in the Steel Guitar Instruction
World. All tunes are old time favorites and all have a nice melody to them. The
solos follow the melody with very little ad lib to them. They were recorded in
the same type of environment that was available to the musicians of that era in
time. NO reverb or any effect pedals were used in the recording. Just pure steel guitar.
