I'm planning to pick up my first pedal steel here soon, and as a total pedal steel beginner, I appreciate your thorough explanations of what you're doing here. I'm trying to soak up as much info as I can about playing the instrument, and there are relatively few instructional videos like this for total beginners on youtube (compared to the endless guitar lessons), so your work is appreciated.
As I said, i'm a _pedal steel_ beginner, but I've been playing guitar for about ten years now, as well as Duane Allman-style slide guitar, and using finger picks when I play banjo, so I feel like I have many of the pieces needed to be able to learn pedal steel hopefully without as much trouble. The pedals will be totally new for me, so I just hope the learning curve isn't so bad.
Whenever I try to learn a new instrument, I usually buy cheap models so that if I decide I no longer want to play that instrument I won't be out of a whole lot of money, but I don't think there even is such a thing as a cheap pedal steel. The lowest I have seen anywhere was $1500 for a Fender model from the 70s. If you know of a good place where I may be able to find a cheaper pedal steel, I would love to hear your recommendations on which instrument might be right for me.
Hope you get a guitar. Try going to the steel guitar fourm. A good place to ask questions and buy good used guitar. Yeah, I understand how the instruments cost make it hard to justify when you are not sure how long you are going to play it. If you get one and give it a chance I bet you will like it. Get a name brand student model that will play and stay in tune.This will save you a lot of aggravation. Also they normally hold their resale value. If we can help let us know.
Keep Picking!

@@SteelPicking Thanks for the recommendation, I will check the forum out and see what I can find. I absolutely love the sound of pedal steels, so I am pretty certain that I will like playing when I do get one. There is just something so satisfying about learning a new instrument that you have heard for so long but never played before. It's almost like meeting s celebrity for the first time having listened to them your whole life. I am sure as soon as I learn a few of those classic pedal steel licks and I'll have that same experience with myself like "Oh there it is! There's the sound I've heard so much about but never met myself!"
Plus I recently started playing lead electric guitar in a country group, and I know how pedal steel players can be hard to come by these days, so it feels like it would be a good skill to have in my musical repertoire for now in this band and any other bands I may be in later on.
How long have you been playing, and how long did it take you to be able to play at a decent level?
Could you do a lesson on the correct way to use the BC pedals ? Thanks
Yes I need to do something with those pedals. Thanks for the idea.
Aaron
Hello Aaron.Can you show us
Kindly Keep it Country?
I may have actually done this song on the Opry show I used to play on. I might be able to relearn it and post a video on the intro and turn.
Thanks for the suggestion and keep picking,
Aaron
Excellent tuition, it would have been useful to add captions that indicate the fret number, strings and pedals/levers used. Thanks.
That is a good idea; thank you for the suggestion!
Keep picking!
Aaron
@@SteelPicking I have found it more useful to take notes and map out my own charts. To me it is the difference between learning and memorizing. Besides that I have a different guitar, a ZB Custom D11/10. The bass end of the E9 neck is tuned different (9,10,11 = B,G#,E) and it has a different arrangement of levers, (4 pedals & 5 levers). The more important thing to me is that the name of the string be associated with the number of the string and the notes affected by a pedal or lever be identified. That's what I like about your method, you do that. Thanks again for all the great knowledge you have freely given me.
Can you play the spongebob steel licks?
Sure. Just shows you steel guitar is even popular underwater.
