TREMBLAY LAP STEEL

In 2010, I received my custom-made lap steel. It's a unique design made out of Canadian dark walnut and birch. It's made by a Canadian chap, Hugo Tremblay. He hand-winds his pickups, which employ rare earth magnets, uses Grover tuners (no cheap classical guitar-style machine heads or cheesy Kluson-types) and will do just about anything design-wise that you ask. I asked for the single-knob volume control with no tone control, but he'll do whatever you like.

Here's how to contact Hugo: tremblay_hugo@hotmail.com

Really, unless you are a collector of vintage steels, this is the way to go. Here are some pics of my Tremblay:
