Osorio - Black Stell


Recommended Posts

doesn't seem like the best choice of bridge for a lapsteel, and your mockup had it angled, but i see you have mounted it straight

lapsteels do not need any compensation/intonation adjustments and most have no radius either - both of which are built in and non-adjustable on that bridge

there is a little here on using a normal wraparound

I like to use wrapaound bridges in lapsteels by the same reasons that the article in the link that you post.

The radius don´t be necesserly a big problem, I don´t use to do something to "fix" this in the bridge.

About my mockup, I made a mistake puting the bridge in the octave compensation position, in fact this draw was made to the owner see the color scheme.

This projetc is the same that is in my 50´s Lapsteel thread. It´s just another "a simple lapsteel" Wez (keke).

Seeya!
