Trailhead Lapsteel

“Wonderful guitar, felt like it played itself! Switching from dobro was seamless, scale felt exactly the same, string height and spacing perfect. Best part is I no longer have to worry about feedback issues inherent to playing dobro in an electrified band. Able to turn up as loud as I needed to match the other players. Very happy with this instrument!” Stand-in works great!”
