Epitome Electric Lap Steel

Nathan Baltzell · From: Chicago

I came across this lap steel recently. Anyone got any info about it? There's some other Epitomes on the forum, but not with this pickup or wood finish.

Wow, look at that cap. Can you see a value written on it anywhere?

And pics of the pickup after removing it:

And the pots are both stamped "33-010159",
and a handwritten "5" is in the pickup cavity.

Hi Nathan, I have a cast aluminium Regal from the 30's that has the same pickup,pots cap etc.
I recharged the magnets but its a pretty unimpressive pickup,kind of a faux humbucker but it is extremely quiet.
