Beginners PEDAL STEEL GUITAR - Video 6 - Right Hand Technique

This video is part of a series of video tutorials on how to play the Pedal Steel Guitar. The pedals / knee levers on your Pedal Steel MAY BE DIFFERENT than mine, every pedal steel player has a slightly different setup, but the principles should help you with your Pedal Steel technique.

Thanks Randy 🙏

Very helpful. I noticed a lot of older guys using their middle fingers to pluck and not their pointers

[@ScottPoleyMusic]

Thanks so much, I lead with my middle finger and thumb, the first finger is secondary but still gets used a lot.

@@ScottPoleyMusic is that a comfort thing? Also, I gotta add that this was easily the most useful video I’ve found for my needs. Thank you!

[@ScottPoleyMusic]

You’re most welcome, it’s optimal playing position. When you play pedal steel, grouping notes together is an essential part of playing the instrument. Using the thumb and middle finger is the best way of doing that, the index finger is a supplementary finger for licks.

Do you have a video explaining how to tune the knee levers and pedals. I’m a bit confused as what rod corresponds to which pedal or knee levers. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[@ScottPoleyMusic]

Will get on that asap Junior

[@Junior-jw1bb]

That would be extremely helpful thank you so much
