I'm working on rewriting it, and I'm also making separate pages for "lap steel guitar" and "pedal steel guitar." they're related, but different from one another, enough, i think, to justify separate pages.
African Example
"The idea of creating music with a slide of some type has been traced back to early African instruments." I think this needs a link to another wiki entry with an example of such an instrument. The idea of a string instrument with portmanteau capabilities by lengthening or tightening a string can also be traced to east Asia in the Vietnamese đàn bầu and Chinese dúxiánqín. Surely there is an example of an instrument of African origin that can be linked to here? Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.26.16.82 (talk) 16:59, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
