I am scouting out a stand for my Lap steel, any comment would be welcomed.

Payment did not materialize, fell through.

Pending payment.....

Things I didn't know! I only know it plays like butter and if it wasn't due to a minor financial situation I find myself in, It would never leave the house.

Thanks

The picture is somewhat askew, there is no missing tuner buttons. There is just a guy who is new to this, and trying like hell to get pictures to work! Wink

I believe George had the pick-ups custom ...

Scale is 24.250, by my measurements

I am selling this for $1,000.00. It is authenticated, and has holes for brackets on the bottom. The legs and brackets are not included. I was trying out a new tuning, the letters are latex, they wi ...

I am including brackets and legs. I thought I would offer it here before it goes to Ebay.

Thanks

Thanks, I really enjoyed that. I was eight when that came out, my uncle must have worn that record out; he had a big blond early fifties Gibson L5.

I have a PTP hand-wired Heritage Lobo 20 if you might be interested.

I think "flash" is great to have when you need it, but a little bit goes a long way.

After playing something or another for about 62 years I know that the "flash" number is what ...

It is my understanding that they have about the same control capabilities, except there is no looper, or extention speaker outlet on the GX. There is also a third sound that can be put in memory (sol ...

Actually one doesn't need a fretboard to play pedal or lap steel, one can pretty much do whatever they want. You had better have a great ear though.

You may also consider adding a nicely made additional piece of wood to the end of the lap steel.

From nut to 12th fret multiplied by two is your scale length to the bridge. You may buy all types of scale length finger boards on Ebay for a reasonable price. It is my understanding that what would ...
