Look At Us E9th 8 String Lap Steel

Here is my latest arrangement for the non pedal E9th 8 String Tuning which I have been working on for several months.
I have a course available dealing with this tuning and technique and you can get more details by visiting my ClicTab Page as noted below.

Thanks Kurt! I loved working on that. :D
I played it on an old homemade D10 that was
fashioned after a Sho-Bud. Just picked it up a few
weeks ago and had to do a lot to make it playable.
I took all the hardware off underneath and cleaned it up, new strings etc. I made my own fret boards while waiting for new ones which just arrived today (thanks to Tom Bradshaw)..they are fantastic and I can't wait to get them on.

Many thanks for comments and interest. :)
Here is a pic with new Fretboards which I purchased from Tom Bradshaw. They not only look good ... they are right on for 24" scale.
