Hank Jr. Fan Here!

Post by Paul Lafountaine »

I was curious if anyone knows what kind of steel Hank Jr. uses for his tunes. It sounds like a pedal and a lap on some tunes. I'd like to know which ones he uses the lap steel on. Family Tradition sounds like one with the lap. I could be wrong. If not what tuning is used.

Thanks Paul

I'm a big Bocephus fan too.Go to youtube and type in Hank Williams Jr lap steel,an there is a video of him playing your Cheating Heart on lap steel.For years Eddie "cowboy" Long was his steel player,do a search on him and that's what his sound was for years.
