Below are accessories available for Weissenborn and lap steel guitars.

Shubb-Pearse SP2 Slide

One of the best lap steel slides on the market. I find myself always coming back to the SP2 because of its comfortable shape, heavy mass and semi-bullet tip designed to make solos and tricky slide work a piece of cake.


Price: AUD$50. Regular postage in Australia/NZ is $7.00. $15 to international locations.

Gold Tone Weissenborn Case

This hardshell case fits all Weissenborn style guitars offered by Richard Wilson Guitars, as well as original Weissenborns, other replicas and many other hollowneck slide guitars, including the Cole Clark Violap.

Unlike normal cases it features an internal design to safely hold the guitar's square hollow neck.
