What type of steel guitar is used here and what can be the tunin

[westinbrodey]

Hello,
I wonder if this is a lap or pedal steel guitar that the soloist plays?:
On other records of this artist the soloist is posing with lap steel, so possibly it could be that. But I am not sure, I am totally a beginner in steel guitars.
Sometimes the solo consist of simple melodic patterns lacking slides, like from 2:58 to 3:20
Does the soloist play it on the steel guitar, too?
If someone is an expert on these, could he guess the tuning?

Thanks !

I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
