Coming soon

Free lap steel lessons are next

Lap steel is the next series in Music With Mark, the free instrument education series from Mark Lavengood. It isn't filmed yet, and we won't pretend otherwise. When it opens, it gets the same full beginner-to-advanced treatment as the dobro, and it'll be free with a free account.

Start on dobro today

The dobro is a resonator guitar played on your lap with a steel bar, so a lot carries over: bar control, playing in tune, picks and rolls. Every dobro lesson is in open G tuning. Lap steel for beginners: what the dobro teaches you.
