  • Thanks everyone for the nice comments. I appreciate it!

  • is that homemade...the dobro

  • No, its a mid-1920's Weissenborn guitar.

  • you bro you rip is that a cole clark lap steel? do you have tabs? please

  • It's a style 1 Weissenborn guitar from the mid-1920's.

  • Hey Rob. Great vid and website. I really appreciate the work you do. A question for you. Do you have the tabs for this? Also, is the tuning DADF#AD? I know its in D, but I can't tell if that is an F#

  • I don't have tabs for this, but technique wise it's a slow blues using the low D string as a drone; in some ways similar to what I do for Feelin' Bad Blues (which is tabbed out on my website)

    It's standad D tuning (DADF#AD)

    Thanks for the nice comments

    Regards,

    Rob

  • This is the best sounding Lapsteel I've heard on Utube! Great playing too, real nice feeling to that version! Love it. Can I ask you the brand of the guitar or who made it? Keep on Sliding! Mike :)
