Weissenborn or H. Weissenborn is a brand of lap slide guitar manufactured by Hermann Weissenborn in Los Angeles in the 1920s and 1930s.〔http://www.christiaanoyens.com.br/weissenborneng.htm Weissenborn Knutsen the Hawaiian Steel Guitar〕 These instruments are now highly sought after, and form the base for most non-resonator acoustic lap steel guitars currently produced. It is estimated that fewer than 5,000 original instruments were produced, and it is unknown how many now survive. The signature feature of Weissenborn guitars is the hollow neck, effectively a highly adapted body chamber that runs the entire length of the body, making conventional playing completely impossible. The name Weissenborn is now commonly used to describe this style of instrument in general, with H. Weissenborn and modern factory or luthier reproductions being referred to as Weissenborn or Weissenborn-style guitars. ==Notable players== * Joe Bethancourt * Bob Brozman * John Butler * Jon Carin * BJ Cole * Roberto Diana * Jerry Douglas from Alison Krauss & Union Station * Guilherme Schwab from Suricato * John Fahey * Pura Fé * David Gilmour from Pink Floyd * Jay Driscoll from Barefoot Truth * Martin Harley * Chris Haugen * Andrea De Luca * Ben Harper * Kaki King * Jeff Lang * David Lindley * Gurf Morlix * Andrew Morris * Jack Rose * Xavier Rudd * Mike Daly from Travis Tritt Band * Sam Simon * AG Weinberger * Ronnie Wood * Mark Spencer * Aron Radford * Robby Roberson 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Weissenborn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
