Indeed I stated that the slide on Love in Vain and Let it Bleed was a lapsteel, not JSP. Until this day I have never seen a picture of Keith, Brian or Taylor with a lap steel. Also, it wasn't a true lapsteel, but a lap steel called a Melobar, wich is something like a lapsteel, but it is mounted in a 45 degree angle so you can hang it from your neck and still play slide. According to Jimmy Miller Keith played the melobar on LIV and LIB, but I have always had my doubt about LIB, that sounds much more like standard slide on an electric guitar.
