Hey gang,
I've been spending far too much time on the Resophonic Outfitters websight checking out the Wave steels; the 2010 looks intriguing - though asymmetrical. Anyone tried any of them? Love to get some feedback.
Thanks,
Ian |

Paul's steels have been around for years now. If you care, Jerry Douglas is using the B2010. He came up with the dual offset concept.
I personally use the B0000 but I'm probably in the minority these days. That's OK. 
I think the 2010 is the most popular of the bunch. YMMV.
They are really nice quality.

| I like the 2010. Switching ends gives some variety to your approach and it does help make my left hand less tired. Less prone to cramping. |

Which bar material do you all prefer? Plated brass or stainless?

I'm a chrome plate guy myself. Stainless has advocates as well.
The Beard chromed bars are plated steel not brass. fwiw
