This is a good accessory for playing the Lap Steel Guitar! I bought this Lap Dawg based upon the reviews by many experienced lap steel players! I didn't give this 5 star because the Lap Dawg needs to be a little longer then it is! It has the right fit for normal size hands, but the length, in my opinion could have been a 1/2 inch longer so when placed on a six string Lap it fits across all six strings! It smoothly goes down the strings forward and back, but when moving up and down changing notes it has a tendency of catching on the first string! Just from my personal observation the Dawg fits my hand well, with the one exception noted! I think longer would be better!
