My first lap dance

Posted by Daryl on June 23, 2014 at 9:24pm
I have built a 4 string cbg that turned out awsome. Acoustic, but very nice tone. Arthritis is a problem so Im trying a lap steel. Ive always liked them so off we go. Big OLD yellow pine door frame recycled. Rose wood frt board with maple in-layed frets. Yeah Im a glutton for punishment. Heres what Ive got so far. ;-)

    Thanks, I saw an inlayed one somewhere and liked the look. Ive never done inlay work. Kind of cool to figure it out and see it working. Im Doing a 6 string for this one. I have the parts already. If it goes well mabey more on another. Making progress.

    Wow, awesome fret board! Can't wait to see how it comes together. How many strings is that badboy going to hold?
