Leigh Ivin demos this unique instrument, and we walk through the numerous considerations to arrive at the final design. We look at Andy’s specific take on isolating the back of the guitar, allowing it it move unencumbered, and then on to ergonomics, efficiency, and design considerations for an instrument specifically to be a lap steel.
Leigh shares his first impressions of the instrument and a few improvisations.
