Description

Back in the 50’s when Lap Steels were in their hey day, the Oahu Tonemaster was the lap of choice among professionals. Our LS is a vintage replica of this famous instrument. Our pickup and hardware are identical to the originals. We have even sold these replacement parts to original Tonemaster owners. It includes a bone nut, Kluson-style tuners, ashtray palm cover, and tobacco brown two-tone finish.
Disclaimer: The LS-8 is setup for F6 tuning (DFACDFAC). Other popular tunings such as C6 will require lighter string gauges.
