What tuning are using ?That bass lap steel is so cool and the playing is awesome. I have a friend who was a guitar player and cut 3 of his fingers off on a table saw. Still has his middle finger and thumb. He might be able to doodle with something like this. Thanks

I did it a few times and it sounds great, but I'm wondering if it hurts any part of the amp in the form of over powering it? Would I be better off buying a...
