Does anyone know which amp is better, or sounds better for playing lap steel guitar? FWIW, I play an Asher Electro Hawaiian Model 1. This lap steel was made in the USA not overseas.

My vote would be for the Fender. The attenuator switch gives you so many options in tone and room size.

I second the vote for the Fender, they can be clean as can be but also take pedals well if you wanna gert rough with it. I play a Prineton Reverb.

I like the Tone Master Deluxe a lot, but... the lowest power setting kills the tone, sounding muffled and dull. And the second-lowest can get a little loud for low-ish volume contexts (I often play with unamplified acoustic instruments). I can get better seriously low-volume tone out of a Milkman Amp into a JBL.
