My son would like to buy a case for his
BR-6 Lap Steel.
Is there any out there or something that would fit the bill?

Many Thanks

I bought a case for archery arrows, and modified it by cutting away some of the existing foam, and adding some more foam (carpet underlay) with hot melt glue in strategic locations. Local sporting good shops should stock the case. It works well for my 1950 single neck Supro lap steel. The case is pictured here: http://www.fallfever.com/Doskocil_DoskocilFieldLockerArrowCase.html

Years ago I bought a hard shell viola case and it was a perfect fit for a Rick B6 lap.

Roy,

I'm going to be in Halifax between this Sunday, the 16th and Tuesday, the 18th......is there by any chance a meeting of the Atlantic Steel Association in this small time frame? I'd bring along the Sho-Bud if I knew there would be a jam.

Regardless, I would like to get some info on joining this group if you have any. Thanks,

Chris on the rock

Thanks, Roy....I'll follow up on the info. Too bad I'm a week early....what a drag. Thanks for the offer to get in touch. I spent some time in Wolfville some years ago and thought the place was beautiful. If me and the missus end up close, I will certainly get in touch.

I do have a lap steel case, but presently it holds my '62 National.....and it's original to the guitar. Otherwise, it would be yours.

Thanks a lot,

Chris
