The Steel Guitar Forum

Very well done, I like it a lot!

Very cool! Nice work.

Nice work, I'm going to try this one out myself.

What brand are the pickups? Also, do you have a pic of the pickguard setup?

Thanks

These are great to see, thank you...

Cool! Got my name in

So I spoke to the Guitar tech at the shop today, and unfortunately he's not too well versed on lap steel so he requested info for stringing the guitar. This is the info I gave him, based on my research of tunings and gauges... E13 Front neck G# .012 E .015 C# .018 B .020p G# .026w E .032 D .036 B .0...

Thanks for the welcome guys!

This is probably a silly question, but am I correct in assuming that the "back" neck is the one closest to you while playing?

And A6 and E13 are the tunings that seem to keep coming up so I think I will go for those.

I've been looking at this site for some time, but I recently bought a lap steel so I figured that was as good a reason as any for me to join. The guitar I got is Guyatone HG188C, which I beleive to be from the mid 60's. It's a double neck 8 string, and I am still deciding on what tunings to use when...
