I somehow changed my playing style from a hard touch to a softer touch because of this guitar. I tried to record a version of "My Elusive Dreams" which I think is a little more gentle then Lloyds version done in the sixties.
The backtrack was done with Band-in-a-Box and then imported into Sonar. The guitar was plugged into a PodXT and recorded straight into the computer.
I posted the TAB here for those who want it.http://steelguitarforum.com/Forum8/HTML/002306.html

It might get a little bit boring, but I too think it is very well done. Great sound and good control! Thanks for letting us enjoy it!

I am looking forward to more of this!

From: Steve Benzian
To: Peter,
Very beautiful arrangement of that song.......and well played I might add. You have a good ear for the nuances of the pedal steel and I enjoyed your approach which is a little different. Clever voicings from easy positions.

On your tab I wondered about the second to the last measure.....there is no pedal A on string 10 when you have it on string 5....is that a mistake or do you have the Emmons mod I've been reading about?

Hi Steve,
Thank you for the kind remarks.
You are right about the second to last measure…it looks like a mistake.
Thanks for pointing this out.
I will update this now.

And what exactly is this Emmons Mod you mentioned?

The "Emmons Mod" mentioned above, probably refers to B.E's latest E9 copedent. Buddy splits the A pedal with a second LKL. The A pedal only raises 5 B-C#, LL raises 10 B-C# (and lowers 2 D#-D).

And Rainer, thank for the details for the Emmons mod. It is definately worth a try.

Peter, you sound great..
