Hello, I am from Chile. What effects pedal do you recommend for a lapsteel..please.

I saved this video, lost it and just refound it! Great playing!

What a great lesson!

Hi Do you give online lessons ?

Beato!

Oh my god. I never thought to bend the string before the slide like that. Thats so crazy. Thanks for sharing!

Que efectos de sonido usas aparte del pedal de volumen?

Thanks so much I really enjoyed that. PS I finally found someone I get and you only have 2 videos :(!!

Thanks so much for the easy camera position, and of course for playing on open E!

Thanks Ry

as a "regular" guitar player, I tend to want to be too busy. This guy has some really cool ideas about HOW TO slow down and sound more like a steel guitar player.

Great info, 👍

Your method of explaining the tune and how you execute is clear and straightforward. Thank you. While I am in open D, I will try to use your pattern. I suppose there is nothing to stop me from tuning up to open E, my string set is rated up to E. I am grateful to you.

Thanks for cool video.. I play on a mid 50’s Rickenbacker 6 string. I also like tuning to E lots of places to slant. I wish I would have kept my old Morley volume pedal I need to get a different one now. What manufacture of volume pedal are you using? Your Supro Sounds really nice

What string are you raising to get the pedal steel sound affect is it the second and third for the 1st and 2nd string and you are tuned to open tuning E tuning

Please do more lap steel videos. This song isn't my style, but I'm just beginning my lap steel journey and I want all the lap steel lessons I can get! Liked and subscribed!

What a wonderful introduction to steel guitar, so helpful especially to an old acoustic guitarist thinking of switching to the steel lap guitar. Been playing classical and steel string acoustic for 45 years now, and I have NEVER been comfortable with the guitar position. I am a a 55 year piano player and don't have my piano moving around or feel like I have to support it. Thank you so much for this video, in just 18 minutes you answered all my basic questions about this instrument and finding minor chords on an open (bared played) tuning.

Your volume pedal technique is fantastic, too.

Nice video Ryan! Love the harmonic and the pinky-bend behind the bar!! do some more in open E if you would. Long time guitar player but total newbie on lapsteel

This was amazing. Thanks so much.

Ryan, thanks for this video here, 35 years ago i found a 1957 Supro in a pawn shop, for $100, it has that old Horseshoe looking pickup, it looks a lot like yours here, I tune to a C6 , because i was after that Hank Williams Sound, for Country, I hear Mr. Duane Allman here in your playing, Duane is My Hero, Cousin Figel

thank you so much! this is the only open e video i could find that was easy to fallow and learn. this is also my first song im learning on the lap steel. is there a backing track for this to play along with that you recommend?

Great video! Thanks for sharing 👍

Great

Great to have you back! Will be watching for more! Steel players stick together!

Brilliant video Ryan, thank you. I couldn't find the domnant 7th chord. at what point do you talk about it? thanks.

Nice

Great guitar video! Keep up the good work.

Great video,thank you! Do you have any reccommendations for a beginner on what type of Lap guitar you might reccommend? thank you.

Is the volume pedal spring loaded?

Mind blown! Thanks for revealing your technique. I learned a ton:) You gave away so much knowledge and unveiled so much of the mystery I feel like I can confidently take another shot at the lap steel. Thanks for the love!

What a pretty little Supro!

Really nice tutorial, thanks!

👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎶🎶🎶🎶🎵🎵🎵🎼🎵🎼🎵🎼🎶🎶👏👏

How is this your only video! Where can I hear you play? I don’t see you on Spotify. Thank you Ryan.

Дякую ! Дуже корисистно бро )

I'm sure kind Sir; you know that the first original Hawaiian (Steel) Guitar in the 1880's; that used the open Key E*; they had a D note on the 5th string. This gave a 7th chord on every fret. Yes you loose the bottom 5th note. But that 7th is used so much; the Hawaiians (who invented the SG) gave up that B string. Then later they built a 7 stringer. And they got that B back. I kind of think they did this solely for that 7th. Not sure. Later; when they made 8 string SG's; they added the low 3rd note. But the "Western Swing" SG players did this. (HI to LO) E C# B G# E D B E. For this gave them a 13th chord; that fit perfect in their style of playing. Also gives a minor chord (C# minor open strings). For what it's worth. Thanks for your channel. Great. * The 2nd tuning they invented; was A major (HI to LO) E C# A E A E (low Bass). But some did this (HI to LO) E C# A E C# A (Hi Bass). And the 3rd invention was a C# minor tuning. (Hi to Low). E C# G# E B E. Some called it E6. Then over the years; it is said here are more than one hundred tunings; that SG players came up with. WOW! Of course, that spawned "Pedal" Steel Guitars. And the rest is History.

hi Ryan , What gauge strings are you using and are they round ,semi flat ,or flat wound,oh and do you use a wound G string?I just got a 51 Supro and am a Guitar player for years.Thank you so much.Great playing

Great video, Thank you! 🙏

Interesting tips, Ryan! I think I could even use variations of this on my Fender Esquire w/my steel slide. Couldn't I?

Hi Ryan! It's possible tune the lap in Open G (GBD GBD) or Open A (AC#E AC#E) Can you tell us a complete good strings gauge to use? Thanks :)

Olá tudo bem ? Eu adquiri uma Lap Steel de 8 cordas e gostaria de saber se posso utilizar a afinação open E ? E como afinar as 2 cordas extras ?

More grace

I love that bend behind the bar trick. i'll have to work on that.

Great lesson Sir. All meat and potatoes no filler. Only makes it hard to decide between a b bender for a Tele, a lap or go all in on the real 10 string.

Very good lesson!

Thank you for share your fantastic knowledge. I´m looking for this for years. Actualy I´m using a Nashville tuning on my lap steel to get these country and pedal steel feelings, but in this video you realy show me how Open E is powefull. Thank you! Best regards from Brazil.

More lessons please

Thanks for making this video and sharing these techniques with us.

It's people like you that make the world a better place. Thanks! I've always loved lap steel guitar, Torn and Frayed is one of my favorite songs. I learned to play that solo without a slide. But you showed me how to do it with a slide... Never thought to bend the strings with my left hand... Genius!!!
