Nicely built lap steel. Does not have any issues with hardware or electronics.
Pickups is a bit dark, but can sound good for more gritty, blues tone.
I do not have too much experience with lap steel, but Gretsch is definitely fun to play.

Sounds wonderful, let down by a few things.

First of all, this sounds great. I don't know what the pickup is, I think it is single coil but it is very evocative in C6 of nice things. However a few annoying bits- the bridge end of things is a bit rough and ready, the fingerboard (?) warps in the heat and the tuners are not in keeping with the beast. The first one I got from this site had a broken tone pot, which was a bit odd. Thomann were very good in sending me a new lapsteel- they could have just sent me a pot.

The budget and quality are in perfect balance. To achieve perfection it is necessary to purchase the "Duesenberg Multibender" Replacement bridge for ST-style guitars. This can be purchased here .
See how it works on YouTube. You don't even have to drill additional holes.
