Vorson LT2308 TR 8-String Lap Steel Guitar with Gig Bag, Transparent Red Quilt
The Vorson LT-230-8 is a professional quality 8 String lap steel guitar custom designed by Vorson’s team of player/luthiers for exceptional performance on stage or in the studio. Many elite lap steel players prefer the expanded range of an 8 string that allows you to play fuller chords, and more interesting inversions, because you have more notes under the bar. With 8 strings you also have a wider range across the strings opening up new variations playing scales, runs, and arpeggios. The LT-230-8 features a 30 fret rosewood neck and a solid mahogany body with a deeply quilted maple top and matching headstock. The LT-230-8’s expanded range is powered by Vorson’s exclusive VSY-3+ Tone / Active Electronics and EQ coupled to a custom designed 8 string Master 100 pickup. Note: The LT-230-8 is not a converted 6 string lap steel and the nut, bridge, fretboard, and pickup are specially designed for 8 string spacing so no cramped strings. If you can play a 6 you can play the Vorson 8, and you will light it up! Available in Translucent Blue, Translucent Red, and Translucent Vintage Sunburst and ships complete with a premium padded bag, tone bar, and cable.

Very Nice Lap Steel Very nice instrument. String spacing is perfect, easy to play. Build quality is excellent. The fret board is real wood about a 1/4 inch thick, not a plastic overlay. The active pick-up sounds nice and the EQ is useful. There are four knobs, one volume, one tone, one EQ sweep and a fourth knob that doesn’t seem to do much of anything. There were no instructions to refer to, nor could I find anything online about it. The scale is 22.5 inches which is the standard. Useful if you do a lot of bar…
Excellent
