Swampy and sinister!

The Ghost 23.07.2013

I bought this to complement a recently purchased lap steel guitar. I had initially tried to play it with a standard guitar Slide both steel and Glass which does work but is extremely awkward and falls of at either end of the six strings as they aren’t the width of the strings. When I received this product I was amazed how heavy it was. It was so heavy it had broken the plastic holder in the case it came in when it arrived, which incidently is a good addition for storage. When I placed it on the strings and got used to the new approach of holding it I was amazed at just how dark,swampy and sinister the weight can make the headstock end of the lap steel sound. Very pleased with this purchase already. It also is useful up the neck for a brighter country style sound.
I didn't give this full marks as i feel the Tonebars with additional grips are better and easier to use, but also 3 times as dear.

I was fortunate enough to receive a pedal steel guutar rrcently. Itnlooked great, but I needed a bar to use. As I didn't know what was available, I viewed the Thomann website to see what I coukd buy.

There were quite a few different styles to choose trom. I noticed the Harley Benton tonebar and had a look at the specification. It comes in a realli nice little wood effect presentation box. The tonebar itself has a nice, solid feel due to it's solid condtruction. The weight means it sits easily on the strings without the need to press hard onto the string surface. The chrome surface is vety well applied, redulting inna super smooth feel.

The rounded "bullet end" style makes for very eady maneuvering across yhe strings. This is fantastic value for money. Go on, treat yourself!

Perfect for lap steel guitar. If you are a beginner with lap steel and you don't want to spend hundreds on a tone bar, this is for you.
