Steve,
This video tip is awesome! I love to hear the Edge’s layering and often wondered how he did it. Thanks for the insights! Now I have to go out and get a delay pedal (ha, ha).

Thanks for the lessons, they are VERY helpful! Would love to get Phil
Keaggy’s version of, COUNTY DOWN. I’ve learned some of it, but I can’t find
it like he play’s it.
Thank You Again,

Cool lesson/tips! As a middle-aged beginner(always been a wannabe guitarist, but now actually learning), the insight you give, Steve, is incredibly valuable. I’ve always wondered how the awesome U2 sound was made. One day I’ll be able to rock it, too!

Hi Steve
I don’t have a digital delay in my box of toys. But after seeing this video I want to go out and get one. Great tip. Thank You.

I can not be available for the live lesson tonight. Is there a way to see it later tonight.

Steve,
I did watch the show with Rory and you were great together. It is amazing what a blind man can learn to do without benfit of sight. The music and sound was as good as any lesson so far, although I did have a problem with the video freezing twice for a good period of time but got most of it.
Thanks for your teachings. I was into lesson 6, but my fingers at age 80 don’t want to find the chords. I have backslide for awhile but plan to start the whole course all over again from scratch. Ron79.

Steve, everytime I read your newsletters I learn something new and helpful.
The Edge sound is effective and amazing. U2 have been the biggest band in the world for so long built off his innovative use of Delay.
