| Very nice work! I really like the keyless tuner. If not too much trouble I would love to see more detailed pictures of that. What tunings do you like? |

| That wood chest the lap steel is resting on is an amazing looking item. Fine work looks super good. |

Seven strings is good enough for me with A6th and the E on top.
I feel kind of like 6 is not enough, but on my 8 strings I don't often play the bottom string.
If I was building one with plans of selling it I'd sure have 8, but if for myself 7 would be just fine.
