Can you imagine being such a miserable person that you'd actually give this video a thumbs down? Great video! I'm new to the lap steel, so this was a very well explained video for knowing where the relative minor of a major chord is. Thanks!
What is sadder is a person who attacks others with whom they disagree. We all have different opinions there's no need to get personal just discuss the info.
@@TonyBurke100 Nope, going out of your way to thumbs down a person who is sharing knowledge to help others completely for free is definitely sadder. People like that need to get a life and stop being bitter, horrible gits. It's not about differing opinions, it's about having some appreciation for good deeds.
I really like the bottom fret diagram and I like how to the point you are. Some of these videos are half introduction before you even get to the teaching.
Have you found any other good teaching videos for the lap steel? I just got one today and have been playing around, having trouble finding any good playlist or something to learn from, thanks
Thanks for short simple explanation. I'm working on Lapsteel right now and from the beginning its hard to find something simple to understand. Now off to practice :)
Thanks, I needed this to find some of the minor chords in the prelude to Dylan's "Lay Lady Lay. A-C#m-G-Bm. This helped with those chord shape volume swells.
This was so awesome. I have the same model as yours too. I’ve been playing guitar for 8 years and needed some side instrument to compliment. I love honky tonk and Americana so I thought lap steel was perfect.
Les Black it also gives you straight minor chords instead of the minor7 which is important. If you ever notice Pink Floyd rarely used minor7 chords (not never) but if you put the minor7 it sounds strange. Etc.
Hi Felipe, those are the same tuning. Sometimes people write the tunings from the low string to the high string (CEGACE) and sometimes from high to low (ECAGEC). C6 is the most versatile tuning for 6 string lapsteel in my own experience, the trick is to be able to mute strings in between the ones you want to sound.
Would it be possible to put the camera at a different angle? As if it were looking over your shoulder? As it is now, the instrument is reversed for the viewer. I wish I knew how to play lap steel.
Thanks for the intro lesson. I believe it would be significantly easier to follow the diagram and your hand position if you shot this from your point of that. That is the same point of view we have, and thus it would eliminate the need to reverse everything we are seeing. For example: ruclips.net/video/rARCcW3I0K4/видео.html
I agree why be negative about a helpful video like this? In Philadelphia we say a person like this probably had a tea spoon of shit for breakfast in the morning.

Thank you! I just got a lap steel this week and this is the best explanation I’ve found regarding why a c6 tuning is so useful.
You just opened up a whole new world of lap steel guitar, I ordered one online it's on its way I can't wait to try this out thanks
Oooooooh man, that was so helpful! I've had my lap steel in Open D, trying to figure out how to play minor chords. This is a game changer!

@@Dallasrocks120 nothing really but still looking
Did you learn how to play?
Good video. Very informative. Please post more.
Thanks for short simple explanation. I'm working on Lapsteel right now and from the beginning its hard to find something simple to understand. Now off to practice :)
Informative & valuable lesson. Thanks.
I LIKE THE WAY YOU TEACH DO !!!
Guitar player trying to fill in with lap steel… so hard to figure out but this is very helpful. Baby steps!
Great lesson I wonder though if you could do another one on how to get 7th and Dim chords with what you already posted would give a guy a good start.
Really appreciate your experience.
Video was Great.
Thank you
Thanks, I needed this to find some of the minor chords in the prelude to Dylan's "Lay Lady Lay. A-C#m-G-Bm. This helped with those chord shape volume swells.
Great lesson with some good theory!
Great lesson. Well thought out. Thank you for the inspiration.
This was so awesome. I have the same model as yours too. I’ve been playing guitar for 8 years and needed some side instrument to compliment. I love honky tonk and Americana so I thought lap steel was perfect.
Nice, short and informative. Great viewing...
I like this tuning so minor chords are top 3 strings and bottom 3 are major chords. Makes it real easy to remember.
Excellent tuition, thanks❤
Great visuals with that bottom fretboard diagram! I'll subscribe just for that smart design. Thanks.
Very helpful!! Thanks a million! (Teaching my father how to play this instrument in his retirement. I even got him the same Gretsch! LOL!)
What strings do you you use on the low end for a tighter sound
I WOULD PAY FOR YOUR LESSONS
Great video, very helpful, thank you.
Hi! Thx 4 clear it for my rookie level! Saludos! :)
Nicely explained. Thanks
I live in lonndo and have bought a lapsteel guitar, and wonder if you do lessons, as I am looking to find a tutor?
Thanks, what string gauges do you use for this 22.5 scale length. Tension is very slack with regular guitar strings
Can you play in key of G and A with C6 tuning??
hi, sir can you teach us chords on lapsteel gwitar on standard E tuning
Good information. Thanks!
Thabx ,.. my novice status has just been improved
I'm playing in open E would c6 be better
que gran vide apesar de que hablo español y no Ingles me fue de gran ayuda
Are you based in London?
Just wondering if there is an advantage in tuning C6 instead of open C, D, E or A, or some other alternative...
Les Black the 6 is what gives you the “steel” sound. Mainly the whole step between the 5 and 6 (middle strings)
Les Black it also gives you straight minor chords instead of the minor7 which is important. If you ever notice Pink Floyd rarely used minor7 chords (not never) but if you put the minor7 it sounds strange. Etc.
Thanks for your response. It makes sense now...
which one is better for Western swing? C6 E-C-A-G-E-C or C6 C-E-G-A-C-E???
Hi Felipe, those are the same tuning. Sometimes people write the tunings from the low string to the high string (CEGACE) and sometimes from high to low (ECAGEC). C6 is the most versatile tuning for 6 string lapsteel in my own experience, the trick is to be able to mute strings in between the ones you want to sound.
@@LondonExperimental Of course hahaha, it is the same... My fault. But nice to know that this one is the most common C6 pattern. Many thanks!!!
@@LondonExperimental how did you get your low strings CEG to sound good? My strings are so loose and sound dead. Where do you get your strings?
Hola desde puerto Rico
You sound just like Matthew Broderick
Yip good stuff put up mor if you have it cheers
