Beautiful lap steels! What types of wood? Pups? What kind of finish did you apply?

Those are sweet! Nice lines, great attention to detail. Are those the repro Fender wide-range humbuckers or the GFS version? Tell us more -- and let's hear some clips!

Hi GP have a nice cup of Espresso!
Body is mahogany, and top is Zebrawood, and Flamed-curly maple for the "f" holes version. Nitro cellulose satin lacquer.
Yes Peter, pick ups ( GFs) are the same for booth models, very Bright pick ups!
Let's talk about Headstock

The link doesn't work. It takes you to the European Steel Guitar Forum, from where none of the subsequent links work, unfortunately.

Alan, all subsequent links BY ME do work, unfortunately the other links were on a Free-Serve of a server and consequently were lost.. I hate it when the continuity of a post is lost because of a lack of diligence regarding the content..
Roberto, mi dispiace per la deriva in tema .. La chitarra è bella, ma non riesco a capire perché ha due pickup, Gibson, Rickenbacher, Nazionali e Fender ha utilizzato solo un pick-up e sicuramente lavorato per loro .. Grazie tu per tu gentilezza nel mostrarci le foto .. Magnifico...
ci siamo divertiti
