RG-31-NA Lap Steel : Recording King Lap Steel

As a complete beginner on Lap Steel (and not wishing to shell out too much just in case!) I did my research and this one always came up as great value for money. It certainly looks the part! On plugging it in (The supplied lead is a little wimpy but better than nothing) there is a slight buzz but I normally put that down to the P90 style pickup as I have the same problems with my P90 equipped guitars.

I restrung it to set it for C6 tuning and armed with a book and a few online tutorials got it sounding good and accurate quite easily! Either clean for the traditional sound or through overdrive for the Pink Floyd-type atmospherics it works really well

The tuners work well and all the controls work fine and as I said, it looks pretty good and I can see no reason to change to another model for some time or at all. The satin mahogany looks much nicer than the sunburst in my opinion!

At the price this is selling for there really is nothing to complain about and its certainly great value for money!
