I have just found a box of my INTRODUCTION TO LAP STEEL GUITAR that I am happy to sell for £12.00 including postage in the UK. For overseas I will have to check the postage. ----------------------------------------- Blurb on the back of the DVD package.... AN INTRODUCTION TO LAP STEEL GUITAR WITH MICHAEL MESSER
Michael Messer is a virtuoso steel and slide guitarist whose playing encompasses the entire history of the style, but at the same time is totally individual and contemporary.
For Blues, Country, Hawaiian and Bluegrass styles on resophonic, electric, or acoustic lap steel guitar.
This tuition DVD contains all the building blocks you need to start playing lap steel guitar. Michael Messer provides clear instructions along with numerous insights and hot tips. Although aimed at beginners, this DVD is useful for players at all levels.
Michael starts with an introduction of which tools to use and how to hold the ‘steel’ to produce clear notes and get a good tone. He demonstrates all the basic techniques, including: holding the steel, vibrato, playing single notes, chords, rhythm, and harmony runs using straight and angled steel techniques. Michael teaches a simple major scale melody and introduces the student to playing the musical styles most associated with lap steel guitar. The lesson also includes improvisational techniques and much more.
"In the hands of Jerry Douglas, Michael Messer & Stacy Phillips, the resophonic guitar has journeyed light years from its country-blues roots." Guitar Buyer magazine
“To say that Messer is a slide guitarist is like describing Mother Theresa as a nun! One of the best slide guitarists Britain has ever produced”. Time Out magazine
PM me to buy. Shine On Michael

I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I pretend to be looking for something hoping I will find what I'm really looking for! It actually works, but sometimes I actually forget what it is I'm looking for in the first place!
Best wishes to you all, John

Oooh! I’ll take one if you’ve still got them for sale?
Was just looking for a tutorial course this week and saw this thread get flagged.
