Maiden´s Prayer

[@Bondidog]

I still come back to this beautiful piece of music regularly.

[@theCree]

Just gorgeous. I love all those slants and pulls. Gives me something more to aspire to. Thanks.

[@Bondidog]

P.S. - For what it is worth, Maidens Prayer is by far my favourite. Beautiful piece of music very well played.

[@carlmclaughlin4290]

By far the smoothest and best player i have ever heard .

[@TTexas2]

You are very skilled on that lap style resophonic guitar. I really like the way you pull out the feelings & emotions on every song you play. Keep posting this great music so I can learn how it should be played. You deserve a Republic of TEXAS citizenship! What a great talent you have. ✫✫✫✫✫+ in my book

[@melodykentucky]

That was stunningly beautiful! Just WOW!

[@dobroman08]

Thank you so much for putting my requested song on. I guess I'm not the only one who enjoys this number.

[@mrrrks39]

that backwards slant at 1:00 is just amazing. I listen to it over and over. great work

[@swisssteellady]

Ich dachte gerade ich sei nimmer klar im Kopf; Stück anklicken, Meredith sehen und dann während dem Hören Kommentare lesen......... plötzlich tönt es so vertraut nach -horn... wieder rauf zum Bild - und dann eben das Gefühl; nun stimmt was nimmer :-) ...ist schon ein Traum von einem Dobro, die Scheerhorn!!! last but not least: wunder- wunderschöne Interpretation

[@MrJbaker7]

Excellent playing and a really good ear....love it....Jack Baker NYC

Bondidog, Like you I too am disappointed in the lack of outstanding USA talent on KZbin Channels. Unfortunately many good USA musicians in this style of music seem to be to busy. I know because several of them are my good friends. Also one reason musicians in Europe are very good at this music is because many of these great western songs have English &/or German roots. Many of the songs composers/musicians came from the "Old Country" and/or their parents came from there.

[@Johnnyfan1982]

Great job my friend!! I love your style. Awesome the way you get that pedal sound out of the dobro. I am trying to learn and I greatly appreciate guys like you who post videos so guys like me can have something to watch and see what it's supposed to sound like lol. Take Care and God Bless Wade

[@Samandrosajonesar]

That is such a beautiful piece and you play it so well. Thanks Martin. Good Evening to you.

[@bubbakevs]

yo martin! this is some legit stuff you rock. Im a 16 year old who is teaching himself dobro i know how to play just about everything else but this stuff really inspires keep up the jam man!

[@RichieIsaacsGuitar]

Wonderful! Not a note out of place and ALL heart :)

[@MartinGross]

Hi Ryan, it´s good to hear from you. Capo still works ok ?. Well about that backward slant including the string bend. I can only do it if there is a little time in the solo to place the steelbar correctly before that difficult move comes. cheers Martin

[@PhilCLG4]

Smooth and beautiful.//Phil

[@revdaviddale]

[@scottstanton1]

very very cool !!

[@Nashvilleagain]

oh yes, Josh Graves used to play this with me.

[@MistyMountaineers]

very nice

[@Bondidog]

I have just sat through all of your videos tonight and only have one regret-many of them aren't anywhere near long enough. :-( But seeing I read on one of them you do most of the backing as well, I can understand it must take quite a while to put one together. I do find it amazing though that the best pedal steel player on KZbin is from England (David Hartley) and the best reso player a German - you. Love both instruments. What so where are the good players from the land of origin - USA?

[@slhitchcock]

This is absolutely awesome.... different, giving it your own version.... where on earth can I see you live playing?

[@RyanKimm]

Martin This is a great arrangement! I've been trying to learn it and steals some licks. How on earth do you get the triple stop, backwards slant string pull in tune?!?! Nice work. Ryan Kimm From Saint Paul, MN. User and owner of a Martin Gross Capo

[@Pacopeco31]

Amazing. I have been listening to this perfomance several years already and still I find it full of wisdom. Do you give lessons?

[@mvazquez009]

I can't believe that ater watching this video for several months, I just noticed that you switch guitars at the 1:18 point. Mesmerized, I was. The F hole reso has the second B tuned down to A? So you can pull it to get that pedal steel effect? That's just flat out kick ass.

[@Pacopeco31]

Could you tell me please the sizes of your strings?.. Is it just a normal set for G tuning?

[@pharmhound68]

How are you tuned?. D, G?
