Questions & Answers

Is the SX lap steel guitar made in the United States?

SX manufactures all of its products in China.

Is there a specific type of tuner required for this? Will a standard Snark guitar tuner suffice?

That will be determined by the tuning you choose for your lap steel - The tuner will work if you use standard guitar tuning (E to E) - You'll probably need a chromatic tuner if you don't have one.

Is cable a part of the package?

Sorry, only the items shown in the photo and described in the description are included in the sale. The guitar cord used is a standard 1/4" guitar cable.

What string gauge does it come with when you order it? For what tuning were the factory strings designed? C6?

Sizes of the strings that are included in the package are as follows: 011, . 015,. 022w,. 028,. 036,.

Selected User Reviews For SX LAP 3 Black Lap Steel Guitar w/Free Carry Bag

THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS! GET THE MOST OUT OF YOUR MONEY! I don't usually devote time to writing reviews, but dang! This is a lot of fun for me
5/5

br>br>I'm an old guitar player who's always been a little envious of these guys I've heard and their gorgeous slide licks, but I've never seriously considered getting one. br>br>Well, my wife gave me a Gretch square neck resonator (dobro) for Christmas (open G tuning), and I loved it so much that I decided to get an electric lap steel in C6 tuning and play with that Hawaiian style tuning. I found this and bought it based on the reviews, so I'm adding my five stars to the pile. br>br>It's great to be able to play it anywhere in the house, but I also got one of those little Vox headphone amps they sell here, so now I can sit in my easy chair in the bedroom and practice while my wife watches TCM (she also plays back up for me on guitar and bass and enjoys it). br>br>Talk about getting your money's worth! I like it so much that I bought TWO of them so I can practice both tunings while wearing headphones. br>br>It was a lot of fun! br>br>(ps: If you're looking for a unique way to express yourself, try using the words "innovative If you're a beginner, there's a guy who has fantastic video lessons online; I'm not sure I can post his name because it might appear spammy, but if you Google "dobro lessons," he'll come up near the top. For $25 per month, he offers hundreds of video lessons with tablature and is an excellent teacher.

Clean and compact, at a reasonable price; lightweight but with high-quality components
5/5

As a result, I'm using an A 11 tuning: Thickness to thinness ratio of 6 to 1: A C E G B D A C E G B D A C E G B D A C E G B D A C E G B D A C E Hot delta licks and diatonic 3rd passing Hawaiian are the result of two major triads that are one step apart. It's kind of like a double-necked guitar, but if you look at the intervals of the strings holistically, you can find a library of chords that aren't slanted. As a result, you now have: A major chord (6th 5th 4th strings), C dim chord (5th 4th 3rd strings), e minor chord (4th 3rd 2nd strings), G Major chord (3rd 2nd 1st strings), and finally a B minor minor 3rd (2nd and 3rd strings) are all used.

It appeals to my tastes
5/5

I've always wanted to play the guitar and love the sound the lap steel produces, but I have issues with my left hand's fingers and wrist, so I chose the lap steel. It's incredibly simple for me because I can play it while sitting down and all I have to do is hold the tone bar with my left hand. If you're looking for a beginner's lap steel, this is the one to get. The only drawback is that you'll need some sort of amplifier, which doesn't have to be expensive for learning purposes; a battery-powered one will suffice.

I ordered on Sunday and received it on Thursday, which was great
5/5

Rondo and FedEx deserve high praise. br>I've been playing guitar since the 1960s, but it's been difficult to practice due to arthritis and a broken left wrist, so I decided to try lap steel instead. I began by changing the settings on my Seagull S6. When I was ready to invest, I went with this option because of the low price and positive reviews, and I was not disappointed. I got it, set the tuning to C6, and began playing. The string spacing and fret spacing are not the same as on my S6, but the sound is fantastic. br>Another advantage is that I can practice quietly using headphones and my wife will not object.

It is impossible to make a mistake! Beginners and guitarists who want to learn about the wonderful world of lap slide guitar will find this a great value
5/5

I'm impressed by how well my VOX practice amp stays in tune and how good the sound is. br>I find that my metal slide bar outperforms the glass slide bar, so if you want to get the most out of this instrument, get one.

For the money, this is a great lap steel
5/5

I was just getting into lap steel and after giving it some thought, I decided that this one had the best reviews in terms of quality. For the money, this is a great lap steel.

Buy one of these lapsteels
5/5

Hello, I just received my black sx rondo lapsteel. It took three days to get from New Hampshire to Arizona, which is a good thing. Today is December 19, 2019 and the lapsteel sounds great. I tuned it to C6 tuning and raised the bottom string to match different songs. I run it through a fender champion 20 watt amp.
