The seller seems to think this is a custom steel guitar bar because it was found at among a guitar makers things
It is a neat looking item but I am not sure it was intended to be a "bar" for steel guitar.
Any ideas ?

I’m just guessing, but I think it is a mould for a soft plastic doll’s boot. Machine dips that mould into liquid plastic, lifts and dries, worker peels the boot off and turns it inside out in the process, so that the detailing is now on the outside. _________________ Current Tunings:
