Default Re: Who is playing that guitar on ESPN poker theme?

I haven't really watch the WSOP very much...you are probably right about the number of notes. I just tried to hum the melody to myself.

I'm almost certain it's a dobro now that I think about it. Sounds very similar to the guitar Clapton used for Unplugged...although I'm not sure what the model of that was off the top of my head.

Ah ok - I just played a video file of one of the circuit events to count the number of notes, but I don't have a trained ear, so I'm not positive about these sorts of things.

I don't know what model it might have been, but I was under the (perhaps mistaken) impression that "dobro" is synonymous with "steel guitar", or maybe it's just a particular brand of steel guitar?

In any event, I'm almost positive it's a steel guitar [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
