I'm listing this under Other Instruments because it's very playable Spanish-style, but if there ever was literally a steel guitar, this is one.
 
1931 National Duolian. Great sound, not quite a collector piece. 12-fret, flat-cut f-holes, steel body. Tuners replaced with '50s?/60s 3-on-a-side strips. Cover plate doesn't match crystalline body paint. Bridge strap appears to have been riveted to coverplate. Previous owner is long deceased and the widow knew nothing about his collection. Action is playable for Spanish style (better for slide). Comes with non-ohsc (made in Spain.)
$2000 + shipping + PayPal. Not looking for trades.
Email me (weissenben(At}earthlink{dOT]net rather than posting to this thread.
