Hi!
I have just received my new 8 string lap steel from George Piburn. I really must say that this instrument is just beatiful. Fantastic sustain, and a well sounding microphone makes this a real pleasure to play. This guy knows what he is doing!!

Thanks a lot for bringing a GeorgeBoard to one of my favorite countries!! We named this instrument "Halle" (Berry)
I have been to Bergen, Voss, and Moulda for Jazz Festivals.
The String Trees are to help keep the 4 center strings held down to the Brass Roller Nut to prevent String Rattle and to give more even pressure across the roller. Improving the Sustain. |
