Patricia,
Thank you so much for sending me a copy of your E9 chord sheet. You do tremendous work. With your chart I can now tell people with authority what chord I am trying to play.

What an amazing experience sharing my chart has been for me! I even got the chance to pass a few out at the SWSGA Phoenix show last weekend. And, as always, was happy to do so. I truly hope this chart has offered something to everyone who has received it.
If this post is new to you and you would like the chart send me an email request. I'll get the files to you.
Looking forward to the Dallas show in March! Hope to meet some of you there.

TSGA Jamboree
Hi, Friends! I'm very excited to be in Dallas, Texas at the 25th Anniversary of the Texas Steel Guitar Association Jamboree. I hope I'll see a few of you here.
I have brought a few tabloid-size copies of the chart with me. If you are in Dallas, haven't printed it yet, and can find me in the crowd I'd be happy to pass one along to you.
All the best, Patricia

Thanks again for the chart!
Dear Patricia,
Thanks again, and now I see you've made it to "over 500 served." Congratulations! That's a real gift to all of us. I gave a poster to my teacher, hoping it will draw more interest in PSG.
Are you considering doing a C6th chart? I see in your photo on your postings that you play a D-10... That would be very helpful too. Hint.
I had a stray thought that your fretboard diagram might be made into a PSG slide-rule, with each string a slide, marked with note names, and moving left or right in accordance with pedals and knees. That would possibly provide a good visual aid for finding intervals. Has anyone tried such a device? It might be best in a software, because if done with, say, wood, it would be too close to a guitar, and more a diversion from practice than an aid, in my view. Maybe one day a tablature software could do this. I don't think ClicTab does this, but I should check. Sorry for the stray thought, but your chart is a great visual aid!
Very respectfully,
John

This is the tip of the iceberg
There are at least fifteen chords you can get on the 1st, 2nd, and 5th strings on my (5 pedal/4 knee lever) E9 steel. I have the usual pedals and knees, plus I can raise the 1st string a fret and lower the 2nd string one or two frets (both of which are fairly common pulls). Using this not-unusual copedant and these strings (plus sometimes the 4th or 6th strings) I have discovered three major triad inversions, four minors, half a dozen seventh chords, and several other complex chords (m7, diminished, dim 7th, m7-5, augmented, dominant 7b9, etc). None of these seem to be on your chart; the fun and games never stop when you play steel... For example, can you find a G major triad at the fifth fret, eighth fret, and twelfth fret, as well as the usual ones at the third, sixth, and tenth frets?
I give music lessons on several different instruments in Cambridge, NY (between Bennington, VT and Albany, NY). But my true love is pedal steel. I've been obsessed with steel since 1972; don't know anything I'd rather talk about... www.barryhyman.com

Icebergs
Barry...was that a rehetorical question??
As I said in my original post "Obviously with unlimited combinations available on the steel this chart doesn't show them all" This is a simple chart showing the location of a few of the more common chords using the four major string groups - from one beginner to another. Using the 1st, 2nd, 7th, and 9th strings opens a whole new world to explore. The treasure hunt for chords on the pedal steel is half the fun...

C6th Chart available
Dear Patricia,
Please pardon me if I am a little off-topic, but your many readers may also want more on C6th navigation.
I asked in a previous post about a C6th chart, and now I found one in a Forum thread of August, 2006. The thread, with comments on theory, is at http://steelguitarforum.com/Forum8/HTML/001350.html, and the chart itself, by Trap Truly, is at http://dogriverpub.com/trap/chords.pdf. It's 4 pages of a table showing the fret distance from the major chord to variants, along with the pedals used and the strings to grab. It's not quite the same approach as your chart, but it's another part of what you and Barry seem to call the "iceberg."
I was also amazed to find so many threads that are available from some years ago. As another example, the old tablature thread has a wealth of good stuff. It's at http://steelguitarforum.com/cgi-bin/for ... &SUBMIT=Go, but it takes a while to load as it contains all the old threads. I hope this is of use to anyone. I'm a newbie and didn't know how much is out there to discover. Thanks for your help in capturing so much that is useful in an easy-to-read-and-memorize chart!

Understood, it just seems with so much interest it'd certainly be of use to future forum members and once this thread goes to pasture, well...Patricia Warnock wrote:The chart is not posted online. I have the ability but choose to take a more personal approach by sharing it with others individually. I'm happy to personally respond to each request...nearing 500 now.
Anywho, I would appreciate a copy of the chart. Thanks
EDIT: Thanks for the email

WOW is the words I would use to say how well Micky's book is looking. I got a peek at the TSGA JAM in Dallas and the Chart is also a nice addition to anybodys wall. I was a pleasure meeting and talking to you in Dallas.
