Ok, I'm the Papa of a busy 14 month old boy, so I'm seriously downsizing my gear as I will be spending more time at playgrounds than in practice rooms for the forseeable future (maybe he's sending me some sort of subliminal msg. via the t-shirt?)
...plus he's showing signs of being a drummer ...
Without further ado, I'm selling a bevy of very fine lap steels from the good folks at Valco/Supro/National.
All guitars complete with either soft-shell or hardshell cases, the MOTS (2 brown and 1, I dunno, black-silver-grey?) and the 2 cream are $299 ea. shipped, the 2 National Dynamics are sold.
No trades, PayPal ok but we split fees, buy more than one or take 'em all and we can talk volume discount

| It almost looks like one of your Dynamics has a MOTS finish. Is that so? |

Gregg, PM replied to
Jim, indeed, one of the Dynamics does appear to have a subtle MOTs-ish finish

Damn, if I wasn't saving up for some powered monitors I'd be pestering you for that last Dynamic.
