Location: Coulee country, WI. dobros or resonators have a cone inside that amplifies the sound. a very distinctive instrument. however, it cannot be played like a pedal steel. and there a vast differences between those instruments. that said, the steel slide is the common denominator between the two. so slide techniques can overlap. with dobro it is hard to get the bent string sound (with a square neck resonator like mine).
The Lap steel guitar is not tuned in standard guitar tuning (E-A-D-G-B-E, low to high). Rather, it is usually tuned to an open chord, often an extended chord like a 6th, 7th, or 9th. (All tunings are shown low-to-high; that is, thickest string to thinnest, or 6th string to 1st string).
