I will tell you that I might be a bit impartial but I feel I have the best Steel Player in the area and beyond that. With the sweet sounds of Del Roy's playing he makes it a pleasure to sing vocals.

I play bass primarily, and Paul Dobbs if our Steel Player. I don't think he's ever joined the forum or the network. You can hear some of our music on the band MySpace page at
Rogertrippmusic on MySpace.

Thanks Paul (should have paid more attention when we were gigging together. ha)

We have 2 steel manufactures in Missoui plus one in Branson. Plus my Good friend Terry Bethel that knows just about everthing about a pedal steel.

I also have a Webb and Evans Amp.
