Fender Japan Deluxe-8 lap steel, made in Japan 1993-4. How cool, right? These were made for a couple of years in the mid 90s, and they're really nicely done. It's an eight string, so you can do all sorts of fun tunings and have a couple of strings in unison etc for all those good wobbly vibes. The pair of pickups hum cancel, so it's pretty quiet and practical plugged in. The case and legs etc all work nicely, so there's no practical issues with it really. The sound is awesome: thick, chiming, bright, open and full of harmonics and zeal. These are pretty unusual, so if you've been after one, here's your shot.
