A very unusual instrument part way between lap steel and pedal steel, more versatile than the former, and easier to move around (and much easier to play) than the latter!
Only alternatives are custom built instruments, which are even more expensive that this one!
Very well made ( as are most of Duesenberg's Guitars) and incorporating some neat ideas but still pretty expensive for what it is, but there aren't many alternatives!
Arrived very quickly in perfect condition, accompanied by the case in a separate box !
