Great to see steel guitar continuing to grow in the mainstream which is helped by videos like this. Hope you get a pedal steel demo'd on here someday! Nice playing and lovely lap steel.

I’ve got the sparkle black Gretsch steel, but I took the stock bridge off and replaced it with a Duesenberg Multibender with 2nd, 3rd, and 6th string benders. Tuned to a open GMaj9 hybrid setup and bending a half tone on the 3rd and whole tone on the 2nd gives those beautiful “pedal steelesque” sounding bends. Effectively the 2nd and 3rd strings give you the very common “AB” pedal bends from a pedal steel, but at a fraction of the cost and a hell of a lot better portability. Still no true pedal steel guitar, but it’ll do.

unfortunately with lap steels, I could never justify buying one outright when a regular guitar can be set up for slide and is infinitely more versatile... Could buy a nice Squier for the same price as one of these and would get much more play time than a lap steel

For open D / E / G, absolutely, but lapsteel has access to open 6 tunings that don’t work on round neck guitars. Bar slants also don’t work on round neck. It’s worth diving into IMO. Although I play lapsteel in a country band so I’m a little biased.
