FS: A pair of UK made lap steels

Ronnie Bennet 6 String Lap Steel Guitar (£295 posted NOW SOLD)

Ronnie Bennet is a pretty well known UK pedal steel guitar maker, but makes lap steels as well.

This is an excellent guitar in a lovely black finish, really easy to play. Strung for C6 now, but that can easily be changed to whatever tuning you want with a change of string gauges. The handwired single coil pickup sounds great. The finish has gone matte in some places (tried to show that as best I can in the pics), so priced this under other used Bennetts out there

Comes with a hard case

Here are the specs for the 6 string (same hardware, different shape): www.promenademusic.co.uk/ronnie-bennett-lap-steel-6/
And an 8 string in the same style: www.promenademusic.co.uk/ronnie-bennett-lap-steel-8/

pete1951 6 String Lap Steel Guitar (£100 posted)

A really lovely build Pete made me. The body is Iroko, recycled from a massive door at Queen's College Cambridge. Nice single coil pickup that sounds great. I have been playing my RKR Fry Pan pretty much exclusively and I really think this guitar should be getting played rather than sitting as a backup.



Here is a lovely demo of Pete playing it:

Someone had asked me to record a demo of the Bennett so figured I'd post that here too
