HIPSHOT B-BENDER - How to get Pedal Steel sounds from your Telecaster!

#BBender #BBenderTelecaster #GuitarDiscoveries
If you love the twang of Fender Telecasters and pedal steel guitars, say hello to the "B-Bender" or "pull-string," an ultra-cool way to may your Telecaster whine like a pedal steel. You've heard it on countless hits from the late 60s and 70s...from The Byrds to the Eagles to Linda Ronstadt, then onward into rockers like the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin.
Robert Cassard shares a quick history of the B-Bender, as conceived by Clarence White of The Byrds and initially fabricated by none other than Country-Rock legend Gram Parsons.
Robert demonstrates a more recent innovation of the B-Bender called a Hip Shot B-Bender with palm G-Bender and Drop D Lever. Watch as he records the Telecaster track for 'After the Goldrush" as interpreted by his duo, Cosmic Spin.
Robert Cassard shares guitars, gear and tips to make you a better musician.

Hi, my name is Robert Cassard. I'm a lifelong guitar player, singer-songwriter, producer, and music fanatic. I create Guitar and Recording Discoveries videos with a simple goal: to make YOU a better, happier, more confident musician!
In 2018, after more than 40 years as a pro musician, I started sharing my experiences through easy-to-understand KZbin videos - giving you shortcuts to de-mystify playing, singing and recording.
My "day job" is as a video writer/producer/director. Often it's hard to balance my need to earn a living with my desire to share the pure joy of music through the KZbin videos I make for free.
Your ongoing support means the world to me and encourages me do more of what I love - sharing musical discoveries to help and inspire you! I invite you to become a "Guitar Discoverer” by signing up on Patreon so I can keep providing you the most value I can. / robertcassard
