Hi Austin,

I don't know whether your steel guitar playing abilities are God given or if you had to work very hard to get where you are. In either case, I hope you understand what a great player you are and that you truly appreciate being able to do something that most everyone else cannot.

Thank you again for sharing your music.

[Austin Preston]

Thank you for the compliment! The ability to play is definitely a gift from God that I never take for granted. That, and the deep love of music and the instruments I play make any time playing a joy. I do go through times when I spend many hours playing but can't really call it work, it's too much fun! Thanks again!

[Austin Preston]

Thanks for all the great comments! I confess I don't update or check in like I should, but I do appreciate it. The arrangement is "on the fly" so unfortunately I don't have any tab for it. The tuning is standard e9 with an additional 11 & 12 for some low end. Thanks again!

Hey Folks, Thanks for all the nice comments, I really appreciate them. AustinSTEEL, That is a P/P. borgrif, I enjoyed your video and would love to jam sometime. I am from Louisville and my wife lived in Fern Creek and we get back every now and then so we might be able to do that sometime. Keep Checking back as I am putting together a clip of some of my breaks with my band. I'll try to post it soon, Austin

Fantastic playing...I have a Carter D-10 and really like it...do you use a sustain, or additional reverb pedal etc. I'm trying to find the right combination. What would you recommend?

[Austin Preston]

Harry, the amp that I used had all the effects built in, but on stage I run the steel through a Peavy Nashville 400 with a rack unit containing reverb, delay, chorus and various other effects. No sustain though, thats pretty much all Emmons. Austin

I can tell you this Austin, there is no other version of "Tennessee Waltz" that comes anywhere close to yours. I can hear the emotion that you put into the song and I can see the feeling you have for the music while watching you play.

I want to thank you again for sharing your talent with us all.
