Here's a nice country BT. One of the few I've run across with smooth transitions and a good balanced sound.

And once through w/ my attempt at some steel guitar type bends, and such.

Oldguy,
nice BT! You nailed that pedal steel vibe - I like your bends! Great playing. :master:
SuperSwede, that's some serious squish there! :) nice build - country like beginning, bluesy phrases near the end - awesome.
I tried to play something more oldschool: http://www.box.net/shared/nxhryi7cos

squish (skwsh)
v. squished, squish·ing, squish·es
v.intr.
To emit the gurgling or sucking sound of soft mud being walked on.
Thanks Vihar ;)
I really liked that tremolo sound in your recording. Awesome! Brokeback Mountain here we come! :AOK:

LOL!
The 2nd definition is some cool compressed guitar tone - no muddiness there. ;)
Thank you, SS. Was a joy to play over a nice track like this.

SS and Vihar....nice job guys!!!:bravo:
Thanks for adding to this, you both sound great!!:D
SS, I heard a sound reminiscent of Haggard in yours. Great sound.:beer:
Vihar, your take nailed the old school thing. Reminded me of the tear jerkers from the '50s country radio heyday.:beer:
Did either of you notice how the melody could give a nod to "People Get Ready" where this song starts, and later again after the bridge?:thwap: On my first listen, I thought Jeff Beck was gonna start playing, followed by Rod Stewart singing.
I guess when you've only got 12 notes to work with, something's going to sound like something else occasionally. Or maybe I just imagined it......:rotflmao:

Oldguy, I love old Merle! Cannot get enough of his music! His lyrics are often very interesting too (just listen to "The girl turned ripe" !)
I also noticed the similarity with "people get ready" but I had the Ziggy Marley version in my head! :)

Man. This is gonna sound strange but that made me cry. So many memories of pickers in the honky tonks that I grew up in. :AOK:
