## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by B***  on June 17, 2023*

Just learning lap steel. Had a lapdawg bar but for a beginner it gets easily hung up on strings when going low to high across the fretboard. This Shubbs bar with its one bullet-nose end glides perfectly. Problem solved! Plus it still has a squared-off end for hammer-ons when desired. It’s also comfortable to hold with the nice finger grooves and has enough weight for decent tone, without getting too heavy for comfort and a good ergonomic length. Plus it’s a good value price-wise. All-around winner!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good design, well executed
*by S***X on February 13, 2013*

I've been playing steel guitars for about 40 years. For most of that time, I've used cylindrical, bullet-nosed bars, and I still do for some music on some instruments.About three years ago, arthritis and some new original music caused me to look beyond the bullet. I obtained an original USA-made Shubb-Pearse SP2, and found that it suited my new needs very well. While not as well-suited to conventional forward and reverse slants as the bullet bars, the SP2 proved superior (in MY left hand, at least) for bending strings behind the bar and for split slants. I also discovered that I could make good use of the squared-off end for pulloffs.The original SP2 was chrome-plated brass. After a couple of years of frequent use, the plating began wearing away from gripping surfaces. This did not bother me. Also, the strings had scored fine lines on the playing surface. This did bother me, as the bar made more noise while sliding along the strings.I was pleased to hear that Shubb had begun making the SP2 in stainless steel, but I was reluctant to order one from a musical instrument vendor because of uncertainty as to whether I'd receive a new stainless steel bar or a new old stock chromed brass one. Amazon's unambiguous statement that the SP2 it was offering is made in China removed all doubt that I'd receive a current-production bar.There are small, subtle differences between the stainless and plated brass iterations:- The stainless bar is longer than the brass one (probably by about 2 mm, but I didn't measure) and lighter (154 grams vs. 161).- The sharp edges of the ridges that form the finger groove atop the bar are now flared outward rather than upward.None of the changes in shape made any significant sonic or tactile difference to me, except that the new one may prove to be slightly more comfortable over a long session.Only time will tell whether the stainless SP2 will become as noisy as quickly as the plated brass version did.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great "all around" Tone Bar For Lap Steel Guitar
*by J***H on December 13, 2023*

I do have a more expensive tone bar that I like and will continue to use. But this 5.6 oz. Shubb SP-2 has become my favorite. To me, the additional length and weight improves control, tone and comfort in the hand. Also, having different radiuses at the ends helps with single-note play as well as sliding across the strings without catching. Would I buy it again? I did! My wife tried my SP-2 today during her practice time and was impressed enough to say, "Order one of these for me".Obviously, do your own research - but I doubt you could go wrong with this tone bar.
