Designed in collaboration with Ben Harper for his Weissenborn lap steel playing, this tone bar prioritises light weight and comfort — built to reduce hand fatigue over long playing sessions without sacrificing tone.
Crafted from chrome-plated brass, the 928 is noticeably lighter in the hand than a standard tone bar, letting you play longer with less strain while still delivering a bright, resonant slide tone.
Specs:
- Type: Chromed brass, lightweight design
- Dimensions: ¾ x 3" (approx. 19 x 76mm)
- Weight: approx. 154g (5.44oz)
Great for: Weissenborn and lap steel players who want a lighter bar to reduce fatigue during extended playing — especially fingerstyle and expressive slide work.
Note: Sizing and fit are approximate — if you're unsure which bar suits your hand and playing style, we're happy to help.
