JR Steel Guitar

A BIG HELPING OF PEDAL STEEL GUITAR
WITH A SIDE ORDER OF TELECASTER!
I have been playing Pedal Steel Guitar, Dobro, Guitars & other stringed instruments professionally for twenty-nine years. The son of a trucker, originally from Western PA (Sewickley, Near Pittsburgh), now in Phoenix AZ.
The sound of the Pedal Steel Guitar gave me chills when I was a kid. I knew it was my calling. I used to go up in my tree house every Friday and Saturday evening and listen to "The Grand Ole Opry" on a AM car radio I had wired up to a diehard battery. At midnight there was a Steel Guitar program called "The Sho-Bud Showcase". I never missed it! I found a Pedal Steel, took a few lessons from a local hero (Roy Ziegler) and was on my way.
Winner of Guitar Player Magazines 30th Anniversary Guitar Competition in the Pedal/Lap Steel Guitar Category (Won an awesome Melobar Double neck Guitar similar to Junior Brown's).
Winner of the Fender Frontline Guitar Competition. Won a cool Strat Deluxe and a full scholarship to Duquesne University's "Summer Guitar Workshop"!
