I ran into this guy in Palm Beach who has this steel for sale. He stated that he bought it years ago in Minnesota from a guy that worked on steels and he used various parts to make this steel. He wanted me to post here to see what would be a good price to sell it for. I played it and it sounds good and it seems to have some ShoBud parts.

1500 should be a decent number

I would say about $800, considering its built using parts from other brands.

If it plays well and stays in tune, $1200 to $1500.
