The gretsch guitars electromatic lap steel guitar pulls unmistakable rich tone from a classic electric hawaiian guitar.
It is a wonderful instrument and comes in three different types.

Posted 7 sep 2013 11 35 am gretsch lap steel here s my original 1963 electromatic mainliner which the 5700 was copied from.
What you don t want is something so inferior as to be uninspiring hard to play or very poor in the sound department.
Those 100 ones are built terribly.
The choices of beginner s lap steels are sparse.
