hellacious scale. so dobro only pays in the key of g? that sucks.

Nope, you can play in any key you like with closed scales and play partials or slant your steel to produce minor chords and more exotic chords. Plus. of course, you can experiment with other tunings.

GBDGBD is it easier with DGDGBD?

[beatlish]

Not really. The low G chimes in wih whatever major chord you move the steel tonebar to in any case, and can provide thrumming "home" notes at the chord centre which help to give the instrument its individual sound.
