Jack van Breen from Guitar Showcase shows us a real veteran an 1936-1939 Gibson EH-150 lap steel. EH stands for “Electric Hawaiian” the birthplace of slack key guitar. This is the first true production Gibson electric guitar model. With a tobacco sunburst finish, this one has the famous Gibson “Charlie Christian” bar pickup. And you talk about tone- played through a Fender SuperSonic 22 amp, this thing has tone to burn. It’s truly amazing.
