Here's a rare bird… Teleratt special or Jr. or… there are only two… this one is blonde, Ted has the remaining one in black. Of course the Teleratts were the fine Melobar lap steel designed for stage and studio to fit into the sonic space of a telecaster… same bridge, pickups, switching… Paul Franklin and many pros have taken to these for their recorded lap steel parts. This one has 22 3/4" scale, fine tele blonde solid ash body. Grover tuners, looks like Lawrence vintage tele pickups, tone and volume. Black fretboard screened onto body, nice mellow tone with wide tonal range when clean, absolutely screams when overdriven. The ultimate "Lindley" stage machine. Only issue is some of original back stripe (not really padding) is worn, as in photos. Otherwise KILLLS. No case- SOLD thanks donation on the way!
