The Elliott-Lawrence 8-string is a custom order guitar that is new to the line and offers some interesting concepts for steel players looking for an alternative to electronic simulations of a resonator because the adaptation curve is minimal and you can adapt your favorite licks over and have real resonator tone.Amplification options are offered to those wanting to plug into a sound system or an acoustic amp for for other settings as well.I use the GHS Mini flex condenser In my personal guitars and they are fantastic for recording and stage work.Bob does offer Fishman electronics as well with great results.All resonator guitars are offered in roundneck versions for the lead guitar player as well except the E-L 8 string.
