my band

[kwijabo]

hi everyone...its been a while since i've posted but i've been lurking all along, enjoying all ya'lls fine builds and knowledge.

started a new band with some guys at the end of last year. though we don't have a fiddle or steel guitar (yet), we play mostly country/honky tonk music. recently we recorded a few live tracks. i used my l'pool style amp, but i don't think the recording really captures what it sounds like in the room. no pedals used except for the ophelia solo.

the audio was recorded through the board. i have no idea what camera our friend used but none of the audio is coming from the camera - its all from the board. anyways, here they are if you're interested.

You've got a real band goin' on there! Dang! Get a Parsons/White B bender on that Tele and you don't need the pedal steel player

It seems Gene Parsons is still selling the b bender!
http://www.stringbender.com/bender/classic.php It's not cheap! IMO, you can get the pedal steel player cheaper

"you can get the pedal steel player cheaper." HA!

actually, i live close to jim mcvay of mcvay benders. a few years ago i called him about getting one installed. he was very nice, but told me there was about a 2-3 month wait until he could get to it. i never followed up, but yeah, i've always been interested in seeing what a bender felt like.
