Progressions in F# — Lap Steel

F# major harmonises to F# – G#m – A#m – B – C# – D#m – E#°; F# minor to F#m – G#° – A – Bm – C#m – D – E. Each chord links to its Lap Steel page, so a key becomes a short list of places for the bar.

On a lap steel the chords of a key are fret distances: the tuning spells one chord open, and every other chord in the key is somewhere the bar can slide to — or a slant, or not there at all.
