Troy Brenningmeyer Weissenborn is actually a Lap Steel Acoustic Guitar because you hold it in your Lap & use a Slide to change the pitch of the strings while you strum.
A little trick my Dad (a steel player) picked up from Herb Remington to keep your fingerpics from slipping... before you put them on just lick your fingers. That's it.
Hi Troy! Which string gauges would you recommend for multiple tunings (CGCGCE, DGDGBD, DADF#AD)? Currently I'm using regular light acoustic guitar strings.

Dude, I am a guitar player and you have got me so stoked on learning this instrument. I just purchased one today.

Man, those are heavy strings. I don’t know that I would want to go that heavy.
Check out Jacob Raagaard from Denmark. His tone/technique is unique and he is one of the best players I know!
Thanks for making this video! Also check out a Canadian band called " current swell" lots of songs with one of these guitars
nice bass register on that guitar
Yay for the credit to Bill Hardin!
How many different scale lengths do WB guitars come in?
Is the saddle and the nut made of steel?
