The Steel Guitar Forum

Creating a Web site like that would be great, but being in the Web business myself I also know that creating an interactive Web site (even something as easy as entering your order number to see how your order is doing) means you have to have a database on the backend, your ISP has to have your Web s...

Nice going Theodore .. there's your slogan for the LapAbout. "Lap Steel doesn't have to take the back seat!" That one sentence carries a lot of meaning to the lap steel stage players who've had to sit at the back of the stage while everyone else had fun out front (except the drummer and ke...

I'm biased .. of course I like "Dobraform" best. But I like, Outrigger too. The terms Outrigger and Outfitter are really popular right now in other industries. I also like a twist on the "Walkabout" idea. This product will allow the lap player to get up and move about. So how abo...

I remember the ProForm body .. I also remember that brochure with Neil Miller standing there in his 1970's Partridge Family shirt with the wide collars bending the corner of the guitar over. (Hee hee hee) ... as a matter of fact I had the ProForm in mind when I added the "form" to Dobrafor...

Since its a Dobro type guitar body designed to "form fit" a Melobar lap steel ... how about calling it the Melobar "Dobraform" Body (yes I meant to put an "a" in "Dobraform"). This fits along the line with the existing product name idea of "Dobroism"...

We sure can start that First Aid thread ... just don't mention the names of the bandaid and ointment manufacturers.

I know what you mean, Ingo. I have this awesome guitar of my own, which really wasn't that expensive surprisingly enough, that I really like playing through this one brand of amp that I have. It sounds VERY nice and I can really rip with it. I wonder if it's the same one you tried? However, I have t...

I always thought "No Peddlers" was a play on words that meant "No Pedal Steelers". hmm. Anyway ... if I and a fellow player were in the forum wondering amongst ourselves about the possible string spacings available on a particular pickup of a particular lap steel model ... I thin...

He does have an adapter type thing that attaches to the back of a CC8 .. he has them on the HotSheet I think .. but you can also click below to see the two pictures: http://www.melobar.com/specials/lap_stand01.jpg http://www.melobar.com/specials/lap_stand02.jpg

Hope this helps.

Hey guys, I did a rather major update to the Melobar site last week and added the SuperSteels to the lap steel pages (you may need to go there and hit refresh). Anyway, you can see it in the drop down list of lap steel models. It doesn't follow the normal page layout just 'cause there were so many p...

Ted carries videos (free for the askin') on pretty much all his products. One of these days we may even get some RealAudio clips on the Web site that you can download .. who knows. For now get a video. You can get Ted's number and e-mail from the Melobar Web site.

Hey y'all Got a couple new updates I thought I'd let you know about. We've got an updated picture of the Melobro G1 Model that you need to check out. On the front page of the Melobar web site we've also added a link to a "Hotsheet" that Ted maintains himself (he gets tired of waiting on me...
