Has anyone heard of this lap steel? Looks nice with a the chromed plate and the price is right.

Those Fender copys came out of Japan, but I don't recall exactly which Japanese company was building them. Jedson was another label they sold them under in the UK.

Guyatone... and the chrome is pitted on the plate... I think the price is high, myself. It does have a nice case, which is unusual.

I'm not big on copies of anything. Did look like a Fender Champ or similar. Lots of pitting on the chrome. Will pass this one by.

It seems to me that any serious player who buys a six string guitar will eventual wish they had hung out for something having, at the least, 7 strings.
