About Gold Tone LM Weissenborn Style Hawaiian Steel
The Weissenborn Hawaiian steel, a platapus among guitars to the uninitiated, is an instrument brilliantly and specifically conceived for Hawaiian playing. These hollow-neck Hawaiians are enjoying a renaissance with players nearly 60 years after the last one was made. Many session pros now routinely carry along a Weissenborn for steel or Dobro calls. "Whenever you take one of these things into the studio, people always say, 'Wow! What an amazing instrument!” says Greg Leisz. "Engineers flip out every time." The Gold Tone LM features a laminate mahogany top, back, and sides, chrome plated square covered style tuners, the original Weissenborn hollow neck design, maple inlaid fret markers, and a beautiful gloss finish.
