Oh man, if only they weren't relic'd!!!!

Great video. I'm very surprised at how much glue is used!

Still looking..... Has anyone got one they don't want anymore???

I'm looking again after a long hiatus - I got slammed with bills earlier this year and have just recovered.

Hi Guys

I'm on the lookout for a used AH200, I'm not fussed about condition, as long as it works it's fine.

I'm in Australia so you'd have to be happy to send it to me

Bumped back up, 14th March.

Hi All

I'm after either an Aqua Puss or Malekko analog delay pedal. I am in Australia so the seller must be willing to post it to me here. I will, of course, pay for all costs.

Let me know if you have something I might be interested in.

Thanks

Jamie

Fantastic. Great version of the song

Here's a really neat site I found. If you click on the advanced tab under format and options you can change the TAB to from 4 up to 12 strings, add bar lines, clefs, time signatures etc.

I'm bumping this because of the full tab to Sleep Walk. Thanks heaps, Basil I've only been playing a week and it sounds shitty when I play it but I'm so glad I found the tab!

Hey Roman, Thanks for your help on one of my own posts. Now - why replace a perfectly good pedal steel with a lap steel with extra bits on it so you can make it play more like a pedal steel? I guess portability, but surely you will eventually want more and more levers as you master the use of them :...

Thanks for all your help, everyone. Tom, thanks especially for the heads up concerning Blackwood. Hopefully in the future I will get a nice piece and turn it into a lap steel. It certainly is a pretty wood. John, although I can't comment from a steel guitar perspective, I can certainly say that when...

Hi Chris,
I'm interested in buying this - will you post it to Melbourne, Australia??? I think shipping would be in the vicinity of $100. Interested?
Thanks
Jamie

Lol, yeah I'm ordering one from Bob at Allen Melbert. They're in my price range and look to be well made, anyone know of evidence to the contrary?

And Stan - what does a Spanish style electric look like? Is it like one of the Chet Atkins nylon stringers? I'm intrigued!!

Hi Tom, they would be the North American varieties. I had suspected they wood (ha!) be somewhat similar. I was hoping for a reasonably dark sounding instrument, so I might go for the walnut - thanks! Blackwood Acacia I will have to keep an eye out for. I don't know of any Australian builders and don...

What is everyone's thoughts on these two woods for construction of a lap steel guitar? I have to make a choice and would like to get some help javascript:emoticon(':)')

Hi Dwight,

How much are you selling these for? I'm just beginning and really want an 8 stringer.

Jamie

Hi All I'm just starting out in the steel guitar world and would love to buy a Remington Steel single 8. Something of similar quality would also suit me - I don't know much about makers yet! As long as it has 8 strings and is of good quality. I have around $500 (plus or minus around $100...) to spen...
