Yes, I do confirm everything happened that way, even that I asked the manager what he had to do with Peter Gabriel (d'oh). Which turned out to be a positive thing. As everyone was leaving the gallery, I just asked if we could join for a beer... the manager hesitated, sighed, and then nodded. Plus, I do remember what Stefan said at the Meet & Greet... he told Peter Gabriel that he liked the way he programs the Prophet V. A quote I still love. Thanks, Stefan, for summarizing still one of my life's treasured shared moments with you.

My worst gig ever was the exact opposite: Not showing enough craftsmanship on stage. We were playing a complicated continuous live set of our new album with several grooveboxes, a small keyboard and a laptop. When we stopped after an hour, there was no applause, not a single clap, which was terrifying. The guests had thought we were DJ'ing.

Thank you very much, I'm a lefty but play rig handed. In 60s/70s I was a semi pro session and freelance guitarist and could sight read which is why I got work in big/dance bands as well as other gigs. I stopped band work when I got a regular job but carried on playing for fun. In 2020 I had an accident and broke my left wrist, 4 bouts of surgery and it's still not fixed. I decided recently to try lap steel guitar, at first on an acoustic standard tuning but struggled with lefthand pressure on tone bar so I switched to an American Vintage II '51 Telecaster with Thomastik-Infeld JS110 Jazz Swing Flatwound 10-44 strings tuned to C6. Sounds much better but too slippy-slidey for my liking. Almost impossible to nurse on my lap but has proven to me that I might be able to master playing lap steal guitar. I had been weighing up which lap steal guitar to get and had more or less decided on the Epiphone, your video has connvinced me it's the one to buy and try.

I honestly thought fret markers were more of a suggestion and you'd have to use your ear to perfectly play in tune :-). Then again I mostly play a pedal steel without fretmarkers so it's never been an issue. It's important to note, the thicker the string, the longer (only by a fraction) it should be to be properly intonated. This is due to the stiffness. The thicker the string, the further the knot of the string is away from the bending point :-). Give a bass a close look, you can see how slanted the saddles need to be to compensate for string gauge. So changing the strings, despite it being a small change in gauge, can in fact change your intonation quite a bit. I know for pedal steel atleast, you strictly never change your strings to another thickness. Partially due to intonation problems, partially due to the changes being out of tune.

Sorry, but my video was not twist-pulling just by "luck" :) Read the comments at my video. The succes rate is near 100%. On this video is the first time I ever heard that my twist trick did not work a second time. The only time my trick does not work is when the xlr plug has a non-removable inner section. Like with angled xlr plugs.

I have to agree here - I've always used the fret markers as a guide and use my ear for precision. I have the RK lap steel, usually in open D and it hasn't been an issue for me.

I always accepted that a change in gage changed intonation on regular guitar because it always did for me. I always assumed it was due to the changes in the way a heavier string vibrates compared to a thinner one and also that a change in string tension with gage change alter the action slightly. Of course I don’t think the tension/ action would be a factor on a lap steel. At least I never believed it would matter. ??
@rootstudio2477 ай бұрын
Most people argue that the change in intonation is because of the change in the arching across the bridge. But I have never investigated further myself.

The theory of the different bending across the bridge is what I heard. It does make sense when you think about it. Also one of the reasons you are supposed to press down on fresh strings right next to the bridge to define the proper intonation point.

Baloney! Actually the Allen Organ company invented the first digital computer musical instrument in 1971. This predated the Synclavier by 6-7 years. The Allen Digital Computer Organ was based on Rockwell Digital Technology. Allen offered offered the RMI Keyboard Computer KC-1. Introduced in 1974, the Keyboard Computer was the world's first digitized portable musical keyboard instrument. The advanced technology used in the Allen Organs was incorporated into a portable case, with it's own unique voicing. This instrument also predated the Synclavier by 3-4 years. The KC-1 was the FIRST digital SYNTHESIZER you could buy.
