Looking for advice on a lap steel ? I sold my pedal steel and miss it . But starting on a lap steel ? should I get new or used. Looking at Epiphone Electar 1939 Century Lap steel ?

Make your own like me, in 5 days including waiting for the paint to dry. All parts bought from Fleabay, the most expensive being the Tuners, they come in sets of 6 and I wanted 7, so had to buy two sets. The fret board printed out on my Canon printer, make your favourite design. The body made from Mahogany.

Have a look & listen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KyLWRZVZV8

I was going to ask:

How many strings do you want

in what tuning(s)

to play what music?

Welcome to no-pedal steel.
