Slider II Vintage Series : Great beginner lap steel
4 years ago
This is great value for money and it sounds fine. I've played guitar for decades so this is a great starting point for me. A few cons: The strings that come with it are terrible. They're so light that I could tune it to open A, and by that I might like barring an A chord on the fifth fret of a guitar. Very high, so new strings are a must, especially if you want to use C6 tuning, the included strings will not do that. The tuning pegs are a bit strange, I swear they're hollow inside so you can lose the end of the string in there which is odd. That said it stays in tune perfectly and that's the main thing. I would say upgrade the nut but if you don't use a lot of open strings who cares?
