Pre-patent* Rickenbacher Bakelite Lap Steel for sale
(*there is a "pat. pend" stamp on pickup plate, thus indicating the guitar was built before August 10, 1937)
In excellent condition w/chrome plates, octagonal volume and tone knobs.
$1400 US Shipped - this includes expedited shipping to Canada and lower 48...elsewhere we'll figure it out.
Or, we can go a la carte, $1250 US and actual shipping cost of buyers choice.

| I bought a Kline guitar from Greg a few years back and it was a flawless transaction. Honest description, good communication and fast shipping. Could not have been happier and still have the guitar. Steve t |

Here's a few pics for those that've asked...I took these with an iPhone as my digital camera is acting funky.
Strings off as I wanted to put on a fresh set; dark areas on the chrome are reflections.

| Thats a beauty Greg. I have a 7 stringer from the same year, and it has the most magical tone. Looks like it's in excellent condition too. Someone will get a steel for the ages. |

I'm very disappointed....... that I can't take this g'tar off your hands at this very moment. It's sure a pretty instrument.
Did YOU polish and buff it up to the HIGH LUSTER??? |

Ray;
I just used Mother's polish and lots of GOFEG (good old-fashioned elbow grease  )
