Rex Endecott was my grandfather, I didn't get a chance to know him before he passed. He was one of the pioneers of the still guitar. Don't let the Steel Guitar fade away.
I'm 29 years old and I'll never stop playing mine... I've got a lap steel now with palm benders. But I'm saving up for a pedal. It's the only sound that can make me cry
The more I hear the music of the Steele guitars, the more I love it. It tears at the core of your heart. Such beautiful music. Please don't let it go away!! ❤❤❤
FYI the steel guitar was invented in Hawaii by a Hawaiian man in the late 1800s early 1900s and then it was history from there do your research 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽💯💯💯💯
I am a multi instrumentalist, my main axe being the sax, and I've recently fallen for the great versitility and beauty of the steel guitar. When I saw these vids, and found out that a few of you guys are from my hometown of Louisville! That was it, I was hooked!! Thank you so much for sharing your stories and sounds!
Steel Guitar- My very favorite instrument on the face of this planet! Great to see ol' Jim Vest. I could only ever dream of living a life like this man has had, he has played for George Jones, Paycheck, Waylon and probably a ton more that I don't even know about. I love this video- thanks for sharing it!!!
My father has played in country bands (and other bands) long before I was born and steel guitar is my favorite instrument ever. I just love to hear it and can pick it out right away. ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for posting this ,,,,,i watched all 11 ! Really nice ! And supprised that Mr Tommy White & some of the others are using the Day setup ,,,,i have always used it & some psg players told me it was not a good setup to use LOL !
Teresa Burney it was filmed at jim vest's house. just outside of Hendersonville, tn. I've been to his house before and it a nice place and he's a real prince if a guy!!.. i love him alot!!
@jimkenslu Day set up is just as good as Emmons. After all, it worked for Jimmy Day, Hal Rugg, Weldon Myrick, John Hughey, and many more. I only wish something worked for me.

This is how music is played. Each one of these gr8s has his own
My father plays steel guitar for over 50 yrs and still has his music store (mostly steel guitar) and still gives lessons here in riverside,CA.
I would love to go to his music store.
Is their an address?
I live in Oceanside.
Joanne Terrill. It's a dying breed young lady!!!!! Peace
I sure wish he was out here in Santa Clarita, CA. There are no stores, nor steel guitar teachers. Thinking about opening a store out here maybe? :)
Any way you could share the name?? I actually live near the area and would love to check it out
Joanne Terrill I live in riverside, which music store?!
First time I saw a steel guitar was at the home of Shot Jackson in Nashville, Tennessee, about 1963.
I play a Sho-Bud Heart model accoustic guitar! I love it!
It ain't country without a steel guitar !
Great stuff!! Can't wait for Part 2, 3, etc.!!
My 2 favorite Steel Guitar players were Norman Hamlett and Ralph Mooney.
Mr. Vest (falls down on his knees) I'm not worthy! :-) Was never coordinated enough to play the steel and stuck to the banjo. This is awesome!
Awesome-thanks from a New Hampshire bass man!!
James suddith. Playing a Johnny tiillison song on steel. Guitar
Holy cow guys! Thanks for posting this!!!
I remember Speedy West, a lot of great such as Don Helms and Leon McAuliffe have gone home. I'm sure you fellas had a great time.
My dad was Rocky Caple but unfortunately he passed away in 2012, but he would've liked this!!
