"When you hear twin fiddles and a steel guitar... You're listening to the sound of the American heart..."

As a British man who knows nothing about country, I had to put down my tea and listen to his impromptu arrangement of Amazing Grace because it evoked something in me that was so expressive and vocal that I couldn't tear away from it.

The Steel Guitar has always been the instrument that makes you feel the music in your bones. Country is not country without a Steel Guitar and a Fiddle.

I could listen to the steel guitar being played all day

I’ve been incredibly fortunate to play upright bass alongside some of the greatest up and coming pedal steel players alive. Thank you for covering this incredible instrument! As a good friend and phenomenal pedal steel player said to me, “it takes at least ten years to suck at this.” I gave it a shot, and was completely lost.

I play pedal steel in a psychedelic rock band in Knoxville TN called Chameleous. So glad to see steel represented!

Dude, this is mind-blowing: literally YESTERDAY I was thinking I wish there was a good video on the concepts of pedal steel guitar!

That rendition of amazing grace is legitimately one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in my life! Amazing video and instrument. Thanks Tyler!

4:50 When you jam together it sounds soooo good!! Could listen to it all day!

"That's the sound we love!"
That's right! We do 😁

I got to meet Don Helms. The steel player for Hank Sr’s driftin cowboys. Fantastic man. Traditional country and pedal steel is something special.

A great pedal steel player can subtly add so much emotion to a song. I just can’t image the point where someone sits down at one of those contraptions and decides, yep, lead guitar is too damn easy to play and carry around, I want to become a master of this guitar version of a cathedral organ and decides on a path moving forward. Amazing stuff.

Steel player out of Fayetteville, AR here. Thanks for showcasing this awesome instrument!

2:39 the moment when you just have to stop the video and just look at how many GOAT's are on the stage

I worked for a company that made pickups for MIDI guitar, and at the NAMM show, I met a group of people that were in the process of making MIDI pedal steel instruments. Talk about, right down the rabbit hole!

My mind and face are both melted. Travis is a monster player

David Lindley passed away last year, not properly been recognised by the guitar community how important of a string player he was. Why not buy an old 6 string Supro/Oahu/National/Silvertone etc (they all had Valco pickups in them) lap steel and try some of the licks from Jackson Browne's classics? I mean Lindley pushed Dumble to develop his amps to master that sound and was therefore an important guy in the development of speakers and sound as a whole. I mean, the guy played EVERYTHING with strings on it, so the best string player ever - Absolutely. And he also helped Cooder create the Coodercaster, remember? Hot tip for anyone with a Tweed Deluxe. Use two pedals : Catalinbread Topanga and a Moore Ana Delay.... and suddenly your sound is in Ry Cooder territory!

Robert Randolph was the first person who introduced me to non-country steel playing. For those unfamiliar, he plays a bluesy shred style with gain. There are clear gospel influences, but he plays a lot of guitar style licks, just in a way very few could pull off on guitar.

That second to last chord on Amazing grace gave me goosebumps, so cool
