Body and Neck Construction: The Epiphone EFCL-EB Lap Steel features a durable and resonant mahogany body and neck, which contribute to a warm, rich tone. The mahogany wood construction is known for its full-bodied sound, making it ideal for a wide range of musical styles. The neck is shaped in a traditional square profile, ensuring comfort and ease of play.

Plexiglass Fingerboard: The lap steel’s fingerboard is crafted from smooth Plexiglass, providing exceptional playability. This material allows for fast, effortless slide techniques and enhances the overall playing experience. The fingerboard’s traditional “1939” Art Deco replica design adds a unique vintage appeal.

Epiphone 500B “Blade” Humbucker Pickup: The Epiphone 500B “Blade” Humbucker pickup is specially designed to deliver a smooth and even sound across all strings, ensuring no tonal imbalance during slide play. Unlike conventional pole-piece pickups, the blade humbucker offers a more consistent response and a fuller, richer sound.

Controls and Knobs: This lap steel includes master volume and tone controls, allowing you to shape your sound to match your playing style. The vintage “Circus Tent” knobs provide a classic touch, while giving precise control over your tonal adjustments.

Aluminum Bridge and Tailpiece: The aluminum bridge and nickel-plated steel cover contribute to the instrument’s durability while enhancing its tonal clarity. This bridge system helps maintain the lap steel’s excellent sustain and balance.

Non-Slip Rubber Pad: The underside of the lap steel is equipped with a non-slip rubber pad, which ensures stability when the instrument is placed on your lap. This feature prevents any unwanted slipping or movement during play, making performances more comfortable and secure.

Vintage Design and Aesthetics: The Epiphone EFCL-EB Lap Steel is designed to reflect the iconic “1939” Century Art Deco styling, offering a vintage look that adds character to any stage. The traditional metal “Epiphone” badge on the headstock and the vintage-style knobs contribute to its classic visual appeal.
