I am at a point where I might need to sell some instruments. I have these lap steels that you kind folks might help me to price.
I have what I think is a 1956 Fender Deluxe 6 string with trapezoid pickup in VG condition with original tweed case which isn't in great condition. It is more cream/off-white than it appears in the pic.
I have a 1951 National Chicagoan, silver grey MOT, co-ax cable, VG condition, non original case.
The prize IMO, if a 1940's Supro Clipper, bronze MOT, hard wired cable, WITH MATCHING volume pedal and original case, all in VG condition.
Any ideas on price ranges on these guys?
Thanks for all info.
Dave

David,I have a Chicagoan identical to yours with original case and picks,bar.Excelent condition.The '05 VG guide says $300 to $ 400,but I wouldn't let mine go that cheap.Cosidering you don't have org.case,probably $400 bottom price.Just my guess. PJ  |

I appreciate the input.
Do you have any idea what that virtually same guitar with the Supro label on it and having a matching MOT volume pedal might be worth?
Have you ever seen the National with matching pedal?
Thanks!

The Deluxe 6 is worth twice that at probably $800. On a good eBay day maybe more! Nice guitars  |

| I ended up selling a Supro like that for about $225. |

| I paid 250 for my '49 Supro Clipper and felt like I got a fair deal. |

Mine is identical except different fret board. Mine has the black cover that covers the string holder.I have often wondered if John coop could make new covers out of stainless.
