I'm almost 99.99% positive that Bob Luman (sp) also recorded "The Only Daddy That'll Walk the Line" before he passed away. He did a good job on it too.

I made a couple of lap steels out of white oak and they sounded great and had a pretty bright sound to them. Almost any hard wood will work as long as it's close grained.

As for the first 2 listed, YUK.
