Two lap steel guitars together in one instrument. Details, woods and construction are inspired on the Slide King lap steel guitars. Place of the controls are ergonomic placed by suggestion of the musician. Open heads with upside down tuners make it easy to tune the instrument while it is placed at a table. The 6-string part has a Deusenberg multibender bridge to simulate pedal steel sound effects.
