Far out!

Thanks for the heads-up. Their website is a bear to navigate and I didn't know they made stands for the SXLG1. If they get the lap steel back in stock before they run out of stands I'll get me a stand too.

Do you know the dimensions of the Rondo/stand?

I'm considering using this for my Rickenbacher B6 and want to know if it'll fit.

Thanks,

I just ordered a stand for giggles I guess. It might work out for other steels I own. I'll post dimensions and hopefully pics when it arrives late next week.

The Rondo lap steel stand is made to fit the Rondo SX lap steel exactly. It will not work with your Rickenbacker, Supro, Fender, Gibson, etc. lap steels.

Sounds like Rich will soon have himself a 'project' stand. Maybe he can post it here for a group effort.

For the price, it's a good basis to modify to fit something else.

Bill - Ron,

Exactly what I thought. A couple of my guitars may drop right in, maybe. If not, I'm a fairly handy guy. I'm more concerned about it being a cheap pile of junk and too tinny to modify. We will see.

The stand has some heft to it. It is stable raised up to 42 inches where I have it.
It holds a SX lap steel so the lap doesn't move. It is a snug fit. The legs aren't thin metal.

I think you could bend/remove the tabs that are fitted to the SX lap shape and use velcro or a non skid mat on the stand platform to hold other lap steels.

For the price, if it can't be modified for your lap, it would make a dandy plant stand.

Rich, if it doesn't modify easily, do post pix so we can help you mess it up.

You can see pictures of the stand in question on my previous posting or by clicking here.

I wish you luck in your project. You have your work cut out for you. The flanges which hold the Rondo SX in place are pretty strong.
