| Very nice indeed! I've been using a 6 string acoustic lap steel for solo vocal accompaniment for years now, but nothing as complex as this. For the Blues and Americana that I tend to do, open D works quite well. I'm just starting to explore vocal accompaniment on my electrics using b0b Lee's D/G and D6/G. That gives me maj 7ths and major 9ths in addition to maj 6ths and min 7ths. It also allows me to choose the key to suit my vocal range. Looks like you've got quite a chord catalog on yours. |

| It is surprising what a good sound comes from such a small low power amp. Thnx for sharing! |

| I have a half-built project steel the could have any number of strings and I'm interested in your tuning since I currently play an 8 string A6 with a 7th on the bottom and I'd like to build on that. Could you spell out your tuning high to low? |
