    Default My pedal steel attempt

    I was asked to supply approx. 2 minutes of country pedal steel music....
    Uupps dude that was a challenge.

    I tried to immitate a pedal steel with my Strat and a slide, puttin a lot of compression and a little bit of tremolo to my sound.

    I know, I overdid it a little bit with the artificial bass, but this was the only way to achieve the effect.

    If someone has a clue for me how to do it best, please let me know.....

    It's country time baby! Yiehaaaa!

    Enjoy...

    Very nice, Jimi! It did emulate a steel, and had a very touching melody as well. I have a pedal steel, and would have a hard time keeping up with your rendition.
    Very laid back and relaxing. Thanks for the listen.
