Buddy Merrill is one of the main reasons I started to play steel. Seen him every week on the Welk Show. I think he was the first steel player I had ever seen on tv. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BUDDY MERRILL!!!

Me too! If it wasn't Buddy, it woulda been the great Marian Hall on Ranch Party.

Just spent a delightful few minutes on YouTube with Buddy showing us what can be done with no pedals, no effects, and no techno-digital legerdemain! :)
