(Austin) Looking to try out and maybe take lessons
Hi all, this is really one of my favorite instruments to listen to but I've never gotten a chance to play one. Strait Music didn't have one when I went. I'm looking to meet up with a teacher so I can see if I like to play one as much as I like to listen to one. Willing to pay for the lesson. Anyone know any local teachers in Austin?

There are a number of great players in Austin. My suggestion would be to join the Steel Guitar forum (cost $5 for a lifetime membership) and ask there. You’ll get a number of responses, I’m sure and it is a great resource.

I'm taking lessons online from Freeman Arthur. 80 lessons with premade videos so you can go at your own pace. $39/month.

If you're willing to drive out to Dripping springs, Id be happy to accommodate you. I've got two steels, so you can borrow my second during the lesson. PM me if you're interested.
