r/pedalsteel

▲ 4 r/pedalsteel+2 crossposts

I normally do orchestra based music for film, but my second favorite genre is country/rock so I decided to write a song. I’ve only recorded the intro, first verse, and chorus. Haven’t been able to finish the rest because my electric guitar strings broke and I’m waiting for new ones.

At a gig, do you have your steel facing the audience or angled towards the band?

I see a lot of both and just curious what people like to do and why

I like to angle towards the band a bit so I’m not looking over my shoulder to make eye contact with the band when coordinating endings or extended solo jams

Just got my pedal steel today! So happy to start learning! Here's me trying "1982"

I don't have a tone bar so I had to use a guitar slide. Also no volume pedal. But definitely planning on getting these things soon.
