  • Found a good use for the BL USA L500XL

    This particular lap steel is naturally very muddy/boomy, and this pickup is the opposite extreme. They cancel each other out nicely.

    Wonder how it compares to the ones Bill made specifically for lap steels?

      Those things have very shimmery cleans and distorted tones while still remaining decently thick sounding and can get super close to the strings. Yeah that actually might be the ULTIMATE lap steel pickup right there.

        Nice. What kind of wood is that?

          It was an ash three.

          I still suck at slide, BTW. The tone is rolled off to about 5 here.
