2x4 Lap Steel Guitar Kit - the DIY Electric Slide Guitar: You Supply the 2x4!

Finally, without spending money on a new guitar, learn how to play lap steel. This components kit will have you playing in no time with just a spare 2x4. But this isn't only a tool for instruction. You may construct a lap steel guitar suitable for the stage and the studio using the pieces provided and the instructions.

Kit contains:

• 2 movable bridges
• Humphreys Pickup
• Jack for a guitar and jackplate
• 7 tuners
• There are 12 string ferrules.
• A 12x18 poster with complete instructions printed on it is excellent for framing.
• Two sets of strings: a blues set and a country/Hawaiian C6 set

The 2x4 lap steel can be made by anyone with a basic understanding of carpentry. The essential tools required are a drill, a circular saw, and a soldering iron.

• HONKY-TONK, BLUES, OR HAWAIIAN COUNTRY? The 2x4 Lap Steel Kit also comes with two distinct sets of strings, allowing you to experiment with either the more complex C6th (Country/Hawaiian) tuning or the more conventional Open D (blues) tuning.
• Design, decorate, and modify: We kept the design simple to encourage you to "trick it out" with decorations and other modifications. Leave yours unpainted or painted. If you desire, you can use plastic zip ties as fret marks. (The package does not contain zip ties, but they are easily found in most hardware stores.)
