Well-Structured Method for Instrumental Study
While my primary focus is vocal accompaniment, I appreciate a well-structured instructional method. This lap steel guide, penned by veteran Johnie Helms, is clearly comprehensive. It systematically breaks down tunings, techniques, and even music reading. For any musician looking to expand their understanding of stringed instruments, or considering adding lap steel to an ensemble, this offers excellent foundational knowledge from a clear and thorough perspective.

Excellent Resource for Beginning Students
This Hal Leonard method is an excellent resource for new lap steel students. Its 'easy-to-use' approach makes techniques like vibrato and string pulls accessible, and the 'music reading' instruction is a huge plus for developing fundamental skills. With a clear, logical progression across 48 pages, it's perfect for structured lessons. The accompanying online audio provides great examples for ear training and practice.

Lap Steel Guitar Method
Lap Steel guitar is entirely new to me. I wanted to do some research and this book was very helpful.
I was so encouraged, that I purchased a proper tone bar, as well as a nut extender for my electric guitar. I installed the nut extender, adjusted the strings for open G tuning, set the knobs on my amplifier to "5" and had a great time.
Thanks!
