I hesitated to put this video out but George had asked about this guitar on another post and I feel there is some value for the guys wanting to build their own lap steels.

Really nice. I’ve always regretted not picking up one of these. That one is sweet.

Thanks for sharing that story, Ted. Mr. Dave was a brilliant musician and a nice guy. This guitar is an awesome tribute to him.

Very cool, Ted! I'm sure you regret not being able to make it while David was alive, but there's only so much a person can do and this is a fantastic tribute. Would love to see a close up shot of the bridge area.
