How Great Thou Art on Cigar Box Lap Steel

How Great Thou Art played on a cigar box lap steel. This was recorded into my laptop through an old el cheapo mic plugged into the mic input. I was pleasantly surprised with the tone and clarity of the recording. i hope you enjoy it!

Thank you 407bug.  The pickups are 4-wire humbuckers from Guitar Fetish. The neck pickup is switched to single coil and the bridge pickup is hin humbucking mode. Each pickup has its own volume and tone control, and the tone caps are .047 uf Sprague orange drops. All controls were set at 10 except for the neck volume which was turned to 8. The pickups are seated pretty low, away from the strings.  I hope this info helps. See ya!

Lovely playing. Wonderfully serene. A perfect interpretation of that piece.
