Welcome, Rune. I love those guitars! Tonemasters are sweet, Garland Nash here in Atlanta has a couple that I was drooling over a couple of months ago. Should be a great instrument for you!

Those OAHU Guitars have a nice sound. I wonder how it made its way to Norway ? Must be an interesting story. Have fun and welcome to the 'club' !

I have, eh, 'imported' quite a few lap steels, including a couple of Oahus, but not this one though...

That's one of the few advantages of living in a high-cost country like Norway, you're pretty safe to get your money back (including shipping and taxes) if you decide to sell a lap steel bought on eBay.
