The Acoustic Hawaiian Lap Steel
The
Asher Acoustic Hawaiian lap steel guitar pays
tribute to the Herman Weissenborn lap steels from the late 1920's. In honor
of these fine instruments, and to continue the tradition, I have made the
finest reproduction possible with the same unique acoustic qualities and
distinctive woody tones as its predecessor. From hand-picked
koa to the vintage rope binding on our Style IV, the Asher equivalent
boasts the same master craftsmanship and sound that will not only perform
beyond expectations, but also last a lifetime. (guitar
