The Lap Cat is a 6-string 22 1/2″ scale lap steel that is more or less “guitar-shaped”. It features a Lollar Chicago Steel pickup, which is a high-output, high-clarity pickup. The bridge is made by Kluson, and the tuners are Grover Sta- tites. The Lap Cat can be made of any number of different woods (see menu) and can be finished the way you choose (see menu).
The Lap Cat carries a limited lifetime warranty to the original owner. This covers defects in materials and workmanship. It does not cover wear and tear or abuse.
Price: $1,200
