Mahalo Aaron, every bit helps us newbies. This lesson was much more than I expected. You do a great service to keeping the PSG alive. Johnny Pal from the world of Aloha.

Aaron, wow. I love those big fat chords. Already know how I plan to use this for swing tunes on E9. Thanks again.
Glad you liked it.
Thanks! Aaron
Another great lesson Aaron! Its really nice when you explain the cords we can get at different frets. My biggest handicap is not knowing where these 9th's 7th;s ,6th , suspended cords are. You really helped me on this video for sure! Thanks for a great video!
Don, as always thank you so much for the kind comments. Glad the lesson helped.
Aaron
Great lesson! Thanks
Matt, no problem really glad to help.
Keep Picking!
Aaron

Keep picking! Aaron
Thanks Aaron, I sent it in to you(E to Eb), thanks again, Gary Arnold, Panhandle of Florida
Thank you and glad you liked the video. Gary keep picking,
Thanks!

Very nice Aaron! As you said this lever is so useful I don't think I could play without it which is probably why it was one of the first changes added to the tuning. I'm not sure if I had submitted this before but I recently added the six string whole tone lower to my tuning rather than the 7th raise. Period. Could you do a video on the 6th string lower especially utilizing the split that you have with it? I have worked out some nice things with it but I know there are many other ideas that I haven't tapped into. Either way I enjoy all the videos you make so keep them coming brother!
James, thanks so much!
Keep picking. Aaron
According to the credits, Steve Palousek played a really smooth Scale Steel lick on "Texas Moon" for Stoney LaRue. It would be nice to hear your comments on ways to provide such options and when to apply them.
Hey Aaron good stuff as always on this !
Could you maybe elaborate on the run in Em from the 7:02 - 7:18 ?
It's hard to tell what string grips you using and how you're playing that ! Even though the lesson is about the E lower lever and positions I think the run sounds amazing and is such a bonus for your learning audience
Thanks so much . Bruce
Bruce, I think what I am doing is running different positions for E min. Try sliding from the 8th fret strings 8,6,5 with E to Eb knee to the 3rd fret strings 8,6,5 with A pedal than slide to the 5th fret and play 10,9,8,6,5 with the B pedal. I do not have my guitar set up so this is off the top.
Hope this helps. Aaron
Great needed content though.
Thanks got it.
Keep Picking.
Aaron
What i could use is how to improve and be able to think quickly and easily and do a solo in 1-4-5 progession to a medium to fast tempo. Any and i mean any tips or tricks or advice would be helpful
Tony, I am going to do more lessons on back up and fills. You have to get to a point were it is like muscle memory. I think this comes from learning your fret board and the different positions for the same notes or phrases. For example you can play a G chord at the 3rd, 5th, 6th, 8th, and 10th frets. If you have the chords there than you will have the ability to play single notes are phrases for G at these positions. I will keep your idea in mind for a lesson, and thanks.
Keep picking!

Hi Aaron I just got back as I had Major back surgery on the 6th of Feb still got a ways to go for recovery,was loosing the feeling in both feet, not good for a steel player, anyway as usual I enjoy your teaching . I was wondering if you would do some intros that we could move around for different keys I might have ask that a while ago??Thanks Bob
Sorry to hear about your back; hopefully you're doing better! We have actually started doing requests as part of a new series; so we will definitely add this to our list. I have actually worked on doing something like this in the past, but I haven't gotten around to recording them yet. I will definitely look into doing some intros for different keys!
Sounds good
I've always wanted to learn how to play peddle steel
Erin, hope we can help you on your journey.
Keep picking!

"Pedal"steel 🎵😊
FF to 2:30
Hi Aaron.At times when showing chords you can get w/ Eb lever, you vamp a bit by rocking other pedals or bar and it really sounds good.Can you tell me what you do at these points? Is there any other way to contact you other than comments? Thanks @7:08
Hey, I got to thinking and the best think would be for you check out our videos covering D minor licks. We have 3 of them . I am sure I have this lick 7:08 and a lot more in the series . Just search D minor licks 1,2,3
Keep Picking!
Aaron
@@SteelPicking will do .Thanks
I noticed you call your 2nd pedal your A pedal.What is the first pedal?.. what does it do?
I get asked this a lot and sorry for any confusion. The first pedal is a Franklin or zero pedal. It lowers 5 and 10 a whole tone B to A. I am still trying it out and may make a video on this at a later date.
Keep Picking!
Aaron
Your content is so good! Have you considered making a Patreon page? I run a similar format channel as you, except for mandolin, and Patreon has been a great help. My website is MandoLessons, and I'd be happy to talk with you more about Patreon at any time. I've had a steel for two weeks and your videos have really helped me. Thank you!
Baron, thanks so much! We are in the planing stages of doing a Patreon page and will check out your site . Maybe we can get in touch through p.m. when things slow down a little around here.
Thanks Aaron
Glad to hear it! I'll be first in line as a Patron! Shoot me an email through my MandoLessons site any time, I'm happy to share what I have learned.
That means a lot, Baron. Your Patreon page looks great and definitely gives us some great ideas for ours. Glad to see you are being supported for your talents and effort!
