I've decided that I'm going to build my own lap steel guitar, starting with collecting the hardware and electronics, then buying the woods. At this point, I'm still too wishy-washy as to which single coil pickup to use. I'll be looking to use this more for original surf instrumental creations and some covers, as well as some country & western pickin'. For a pickup, I'm considering either a P90 (or a humbucker sized P90, such as a Phat Cat), a Tele bridge or Strat bridge pickup, or a Lipstick. For the bridge and tail piece, I'm thinking more along the lines of a Gibson style Tune-O-Matic/stop bar combination; possibly even just a wrap around stop tail piece.
