Here is an ending in C. You hammer on the fret right after each open string note. This is played in triplets

Start this off slow with first note starting on the one beat. Play four beats per three measures and last note ending on the one beat/third measure. As you get this lick under your fingers; increase the time on the metronome progressively and it is pretty cool when done quick. Hope you enjoy the finger workout.

Thank you, I appreciate it. I have a c6th course by Herbie Wallace, but i cant locate it.

Yea Randy; Herbie has some great stuff and you will never go wrong with his instruction. I would also suggest Buddy Emmons basic C6 course; he is also a master of explaination and instuction and meaningful stuff to use.

Randy;
Here's a link to Buddy's course: Basic C6
There is also some cool C6 licks, (as well as E9 licks), on the Tab From Buddy page.
Good luck with C6, it can really be a mind full.
My best,

Been there, done it, got the course! (From Tom Bradshaw)

I was more looking for the old steel sound, Jerry Byrd, Don Helms.[This message was edited by Randy Reimer on 03-11-99]

Randy;
Buddy's "Basic C6" course has "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" in it. Not exactly how Don Helms did it, but it's there none the less.

Didn't mean to trip your trigger.

Yes, it does have it ... I haverecommended the course to others as well, I like the way he compared C6th to E9th, to draw similarities. However, there has to be other licks out there

Randy;
Check out Scotty's Anthology books. I seem to remember that there are a few "vintage" type licks in them. Also, there is a few in Winnie Winston's book, Pedal Steel Guitar.
Perhaps, somebody could contact Don Helms about putting out a course of Hank licks and solos. I'm sure it'd be a winner.
My best,
