Jerry Douglas's new Lollar/Supro steel & new "galle
Hi everybody, I thought some might like to see a new steel I recently made for Jerry Douglas. He really likes it. He says it's his favorite of the four of mine he has. It has one of those Lollar Supro pick ups in there. They sound fantastic! And yes, he asked for the transparent purple..
Here she is at the Palace Theater in NY
I just had a "gallery" page up put up on my site to show some of the one offs I've made. Not all are steels I'm afraid but don't hold it against me
Stop by www.lapking.com and look around if you get a chance. Here is a couple pics of one that is on the page:
Well I hope you guys like the pics

Thanks so much fellas!
Mike N. I love that one too, it was tough to see that one go The thing about Charlies is that they are a lot like divorces, they're expensive as hell but ssooo WORTH It. (just joking honey--those are just jokes...just jokes baby..)
Mike D. It must have sounded great in the wood pan!I'm with you, I'd LOVE to have a really nice "Coodercaster" There is none better for bottleneck in my opinion.
I'm so glad you guys checked out the gallery! Thanks

Jason,
I see a strap button on the tail of the guitar, but I can't tell from the photos - did you set up this guitar for Jerry with the support arm/hip rest attachment for standup playing?
The guitar is a beauty in purple, it will go nicely with Jerry's purple Scheerhorn resonator that he used on stage for a number of years.

Hi Guys!
Peter: I've only used the Supro pick up twice and the first one was about a year ago (I think) so I couldn't do an accurate comparison. I do recall in both cases the sustain and mid range was fantastic.
Mark: She does indeed have a support arm on her. I hope she sees a lot of stages
David, if you click on the little thumbnails on the bottom it should change the pic. You can also hit the little + sign to the right of the thumbnails and that will go to the next one. I just checked and it seemed to be working ok.
Thanks for all the comments guys, really, really appreciate them
