Demo of the Lap King Rodeo Lapsteel
Submitted by Sem on Wednesday September 30th, 2009 – 09:30 AM5 Comments
A little demo of a custom Lap King Rodeo lap steel guitar, built by Jason DuMont. The signal chain is: Lap King Rodeo guitar / Cmatmods Signa Drive overdrive pedal / T-Rex Tremster tremolo pedal / Fender Blues Junior amp.
The recording is made with an SM-57 mic picking up the amp signal, and an SE2200A condenser mic for the talking (which is muted in the mix while I play the lap steel).
The lap steel is tuned to Ab minor (G minor tuning up half a step).
Enjoy!

pas mal du tout! des siècles que je n’achète pas ça… bien envie, mais: vais-je en jouer au delà de la découverte? celui-ci a l’air extra! et puis les CC de Lollar sont géniaux – en tous cas sur une guitare!
Belle démo!
très joli petit lapsteel, qui me paraît sonner d’enfer, et belle démo, le son et les morceaux sont convaincants!
Very nice demo and nice sounding lapsteel.
WOW! Man I’m so happy to hear about another lover of Jason’s work !!! I know him for htree years now, and bought him three guitars (yes … guitars! he’s a gifted lapsteel maker, but he’s also making a guitar from time to time, Firebird-shaped most of the time, and I consider myself extremely lucky to have some of those master pieces of art!
I know that one day I’ll buy him a lapsteel – listen to that sound ! You’re a lucky slider Fred
@ Doc Loco: Not only Fred is a lucky slider, but he also is a very talented slider. Upcoming very soon: a review of his fantastic album Hedgehogs & Elephants.
