My latest Lap Steel Guitar just nearing completion, its a John Backlund design which I liked very much.

I have fitted a pair of very old Tiesco Pickups wired in series, this will be my Guitar of choice on the next YouTube.

James.

I love the Spacely Sprockets Backlund's, but 3K is a bit much even for too cool.
Sweet that you made your own, James, and I'm looking forward to hearing those Teisco's!

Andy......you're toying with trouble when you even 'hint' at band uniforms..........don't you know or did you merely forget?

Loving it -- his guitar designs are so cool. A perfect choice for the lap steel of the 22nd century!
