She also appeared with him at the Austin City Limits Music Festival, on September 15, 2006 (subsequently released on Val Morrison's ''Live at Austin City Limits Festival'' limited edition recording), and on the television show Austin City Limits featuring Van Morrison, broadcast in November 2006. Cashdollar plays steel guitar on two of the tracks on Morrison's March 2008 studio album, ''Keep It Simple''. She is also an eponymous member of Dave Alvin's 2009 project, ''Dave Alvin and the Guilty Women''. Cindy's favorite steel guitar is a double neck Remington 8 string nonpedal. The neck closest to her when she plays is tuned to C6 (A-C-E-G-A-C-E-G, low to high). The other neck is tuned to E13 (E-G#-D-F#-G#-B-C#-E, low to high). This is a custom guitar that Herb Remington made especially for her that is thinner than most console steel guitars, and is made from a lighter wood to keep the weight down. Remington also made special pickups for this guitar that are wound to Fender specifications. She also plays a variety of Fender instruments, and uses Fender amplifiers. ==Discography== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cindy Cashdollar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
