The Difference Between Steels?
Different guitars are referred to as 'steels', and this can be confusing - what are the differences?
The first steel guitars came electric with or without legs. Later, the one placed in the lap was then called a 'lap steel'
Advice For Beginners?
Would you recommend any playing principles to beginners?
I would always recommend anyone starting out to follow the '4 Ts' of Tone, Touch, Timing and Taste.
However, having heard some playing examples recently, a fifth 'T' is a must - 'Tuning' !!

I know you played on the live Burritos album 'Last Of The Red Hot Burritos' but did you ever make any studio recordings ~ Posted by Mike (UK)
No, we only did the live recording. However, there have been other Gram Parsons / FBB releases and compilations which have featured 'out-takes' ie other songs not on 'The Last of...' album.
