Ok many of you know that my Dad is a nifty builder of steel guitars and related products. This 6 string lap steel guitar here is one of my very favorites and I think it is time to let it find another home besides mine. I have plenty more so I guess I'll part with one for now. Very Happy Very Happy

The photos pretty much tell the story…but just in case you want to know..the sound is simply PREMIUM! You can dial in literally whatever you want to with this guitar. You will LOVE!!!!!!

Only $500. You pay the cost of shipping. Personally, I think the quality of this guitar could bring $1500-$2000 but my Dad and I want to get some out there so folks can begin to experience how good they are.









The guitar for sale is on the right here:

Zane, can you give some details regarding the hardware: pickups, tuners, etc. I see three different bridges on the three different guitars, is it just for esthetics or do they behave differently? Love that spalted maple!

If you are in the market for a lap steel the best thing you could do is to drive to Nashville, TN and come visit my Dad and I. He has a bunch of these to choose from. You can play each one and pick out your favorite! I promise you that it will be the best purchase you could make in a lap steel guitar.

You are right Chris.

This one is sold. I will have another one to offer soon just as soon as I figure out which one I can part with.
