new lap steel
Posted: Mon Nov 09, 2009 12:41 pm
here is my new project, i am looking to get the sound of the early fender, i am using Alder on this one, with Kent Armstrong pickup, the routing is done, now to the sanding and finishing, i am thinking about natural finish maybe Tru-Oil, altho might shoot some nitro, but i really like the look and feel of natural wood.
I am making this to set in a consol as i am not very comfortable with it on my lap. Thanks to Dennis Brooker for the fret board, the action is so low with the telecaster bridge this burch fretboard under lexan is just right. i will keep posted as i get along with it.
