Looks terrific! In my opinion, perfect placement of the volume and tone knobs for easy access by the picking hand.

LG LAP

Post by Lee Gillespie »

Hi all. Yes I was going to stick on a Sabine until I came across the Wittman mini tuner. The Wittman was smaller and fit more into the design of the finger board. (nice tuner). Both projects, the Deek-Lee and the LG Lap have been quite an experience.I plan to build one more a 10 string and put the Leavitt tuning on it,,, learning from the mistakes made on the first two. HA. Then I'll try to make some sound clips. Thanks again for all the comments their highly appreciated. Lee
