Hey ya'll-

Well I put this "Lap Paul" lap steel guitar together out of shear need for my new band and was so tickled with it that I made a You Tube video! :D

I know it's way off topic and I hope it's OK to post this, I know some of you folks may appreciate this! Maybe it'll at the least put a smile on your face!

Take Care and God Bless!

Ya done good!

I play dobro and the only thing I'd have to say is to give your left hand some attention and get your steel usage right. Looks like you're curling your fingertip over the end of the steel to hold it and to me that looks awkward and uncomfortable. Look up technique and practice some. Sooner or later it will kick in and you'll be a contender.

You play more in tune than a lot of folks I've heard who claim to be able to play the thing....
