I played one of these a few months ago. I was blown away by it within seconds, not just by how perfectly made it seemed, but by the price. It's still sitting in that store in Bozeman, MT, and I've been torn between buying it and just forgetting about it. It's driving me crazy.
It's hard to find examples of lap steel that aren't "Sleepwalk" or other 50's hits. I like that music, but the lap steel just seems like it has so many more possibilities.
Would Mr Huch consider selling a copy of his backing track? Just bought a split/king and would love to play over it. Beautiful piece. Or perhaps provide the chords?
In all likelihood, it is: (LO to HI) D A D F# A D. The benders are on strings 2 and 3. Thus: string 2 raises A to B; and string 3 raises F# to G. This is how the guitar comes from Duesenberg factory. The model name is: "Fairytale". Hope this helps kind Sir.

If you can make the scale as short as you want, why would any one want to have less than twenty five inches. I mean you can save on material costs but at what price?
That my friends is an awesome Lap Steel. $2,222.95 was the last price I seen on one of these. You better know your craft before spending a down payment on a new car for a guitar you can't play. hahahha
@@valley_robot Lap steels can have intonation problems... I have a Peavey Powerslide that I bought for 300, and it drives me nuts... :( Ordered the Fairytale instead.

I’ve just bought one of these on the strength of this video and this bloke ruclips.net/video/pn3mR0HRcbg/видео.html. I am more excited about it now than the day I bought it, two weeks ago. I expect it to continue this way for some time the more I discover on it. It’s utterly fantastic. Oh, I don’t work for Duesenberg either!
I believe that this laptop steel guitar is the prettiest SG I have ever seen. Especially when you see it in an "ad": www.theguitarsanctuary.com/Duesenberg-Fairytale-Lap-Steel-in-Gold-Burst-p/8103.htm Note: There are many more gorgeous Pedal Steel Guitars; but that's another horses' color. LOL
There is some debate about "Intonation" on this channel; when it comes to Steel Guitars. Here are the facts: Unlike a standard guitar, SG's do not have any frets that are used; other than looking at them. Because of that, the bar (some call it "slide") becomes the intonation problem corrector; using the hands and fingers on the left and. Note: The 2 reasons that standard guitars needs intonational correction, is because: 1. The note is made by PUSHING the string down on the fretboard. This causes the string to go sharp; with respect to the other strings. IE: when your fingers fret on different frets at the same time; it can cause very serious intonation differently between strings. 2. The gauge of a string's intonation is changed differently between strings. This is why MANY (non- corrected intonation guitar's) bridges are slanted. This is to correct from gauge intonational problems. NON of this matters on a steel guitar; because there are no real frets; AND...the bar can be slanted (as that bridge does above) to correct the problem. This is why Duesenberg uses an intonational corrector Multibender for regular guitar's; and a non-intonational corrector Multibender for steel guitars. Check it out.

I have watched this a thousand times. And it still gives me goosebumps. Beautiful.
One of the greatest renditions when it come to R & R, that I have ever heard. Martin Huch is an incredible laptop steel guitar player.
Same hear!@@MrPatdeeee
@@mvppainters911 😉
I wish I could like this ever time I watch it....
Love the Tone & Playing Martin!
I never get tired of this!
This guy is an awesome player.
Scored a current Fairytale (white/ebony) today. Can't WAIT to try this angelic instrument out in my home studio.
What a beautiful haunting piece of music. Well done Martin.

Did you fall yet? ;-) They certainly are pretty.
Great tune and playing btw...
Yes!!! All the nigh sayers where the steel is concerned need to hear this. Brilliant, just brilliant.

Gekauft!!!!Gerade beim Hieber!!!!Super cool gespielt!!!!
Ganz großes Kino Martin...

Der Sound erinnert mich so ein bisschen an Miami Vice Jan hammer..... große Klasse Martin
Quelle extraordinaire machine,cool!!
This is really great.
Great sound on that Duesenberg and beautiful playing! What are playing through to help you create such a great sound.
Man I love this!
Ok I gotta get me one of these!
Großartig!☝️👍
great. fan from việt nam.
God I love this!
I want one...
It's a Kemper Profiling Amp. I have one and they are amazing!
Something of the Jeff Beck going on here... which is something wonderful. Very nice notes.

What's the tuning?? GREAT demo, causing SERIOUS gear lust.

Hope this helps kind Sir.
How are you getting that beautiful saturated sound?
What is the name of that song? tune he is playing?
Wonder what the tuning is? Awesome stuff!

Deusenberg pickups have the richest sound I've ever heard

Wooowww...
What is the radio looking thing on the desk? Never seen one of those before.
Anybody know?

That`s not a radio, it`s the Kemper Profiling Amp.
Actually it's a prop from an old Twilight Zone episode. lol
lovely playing Martin!Whats your tuning?
LO to HI: D A D F# A D: The bender on string 2 raises the A to B. The bender on string 3 raises the F# to G.

Charles Harshbarger are you serious , it’s a lap steel , no intonation problems , no frets , my 30 quid lap steel sounds just as good ,
@@valley_robot Not without a Multi-bender and sliding capo it doesn't.
PowerTuber 3.0 still not worth the money

I don't even know how to play, but i'd love to chill back in a easychair, and noodle about with this..
I never did really learn how to play my pedal steel. I think I might be able to cope with one of these...
Yes, it would be MUCH easier.
