I got to meet Jeff and took some lessons from him in a small class format. He really was a great teacher and of course sounded amazing in person. We had class for 8 hours, we did take 2 small breaks and a lunch break. Then after our 8 hour day, we took another break, came back and Jeff put on a 2 hour show. Is that a great day or what.

Jeff would bring his traveling lessons on the road. There were no steel guitar teachers. and no other players in Detroit that I knew of when I was trying to learn in the mid 70s. I also sat in on one of his group lessons back then, the first time I heard a professional player live. I never looked back. The thing about Jeff was he focused on teaching us back before there was internet how to play rather than showing how well he could play like some out there on the internet today.

What a great lesson classic quotes, the frets lie! Love to see a series from this great teacher on some of the iconic styles. The way, Ben Keith just sweetly grabs the money note or Waylon’s steal player. Buck Owens still player is so wicked !!Merle’s guy !oh my word… Love 2 see more from this great teacher. Thank you.

His term “flopping” is very useful.

What Jeff is demonstrating might work if you were only staying on one fret, but your thumb really needs to be on the bar even if staying on one fret, it would be almost impossible to move up and down the fretboard without doing that. Paul Franklin does explain it well on: Choosing & Holding the Bar video as mentioned in another comment here. Maybe the entire video is not being shown here.

I don't use vibrato as much these days, but when I do this technique is the best for me.

I LOVE that Jeff drives home the message that those fret markers are into for reference. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to adjust by ear because right over the marker wasn’t in tune. Also like that he mentions the end of the bar is where you get the best tone. Not many guys mention that Your left hand is your heart!!! I feel like I saw this on pedal steel illustrated. Was it from that?

“...By his senior year in high school, Miles (Davis) was already looking past East St. Louis and St. Louis. His teacher, Elwood Buchanan, had taught him to “play without any vibrato,” because he was going to “get old anyway and start shaking.” I like Buchanan’s lesson better. So, I guess I’ll just play music like an “amateur” like Miles Davis and wait for old age to involuntarily add vibrato.

What if you do get old, and never begin shaking? Better practice.....

This video is wrong. Newman is taking his thumb off the bar and wobbling it. Classic way to play out of intonation. Watch Paul Franklin's left hand video for the correct way. Keep your thumb on the bar.

You sound like an expert on this subject..Newman isn't wrong...You're obviously a Franklin fan and take what he says as gospel..Franklin isn't any more correct that Newman..I've never heard Jeff play out of tune, ever.. Each has their own way of doing things and that works for them..They teach what works for them..You have to decide what works for you..There are a million ways to get the vibrato one finds pleasing..To say one is wrong is B.S..I've been at this instrument for over 60 years, as a player , teacher, and I still consider myself a student..Franklin is probably the mosr technically proficient player out there today, and he is just that.. A technician..He sold his soul to the studio producers a long time ago..He's done well, because of his abilities.. But he's by no means the be all, end all of steel guitar "teachers "..One of the best players with the best vibrato technique is,, /was ,IMHO , the legendary John Hughey..He used neither Newman's or Franklin's technique....Was he doing it wrong???Have fun... Keep steelin'..

I’ve seen Jeff play a lot since 1977. I’ve never once heard him play out of tune.

Jim Day told me along long time ago use these teachings as a stepping stone only because what's gonna wind up happening is you'll discover your own techniques that work for you.
