Elva West made a few hollow body lap steels.
He lives in anaheim hills in California.

Thank you all for your input. The progression from D - D7 - G - C is one of them. Are there any more variations. I am using the A6 tuning.

What is the best or easiest way to modulate fron D to C for lap steel. Is there a instruction or video regarding modulation to any key? Thanks.

SAW THIS SURFBOARD 8 STRING STEEL ON THE NAMM SHOW. REAL NICE FINISH.

Thanks Ray for the info. The one my friend has is a 6 string lap steel. I am sure the 6 string is a lot less than the 8. I have not seen any Excel steels for sale on this Forum lately.

A friend of mine wants to sell his Exel J. Bird series 6 string frypan, which is in very good condition. I don't what year it was made. Anybody has an idea what it is worth. Mahalo.
