I have no interest in this, but thought it was shaping up to be a good deal:

I have bought several vintage steels from GC for low prices and had good experiences. YMMV

Cool guitar, but it's not a Stringmaster.

That's a pretty good deal, in spite of the stripped finish, no legs, mismatched control knobs, and a few non-original screws. Yes, it's a Custom, not a Stringmaster.

I like buying steels from Guitar Center, mainly because they usually have no idea what they have.

I got a real nice 1959 T8 Stringmaster in nearly mint condition from Guitar Center a few years ago for $1500 shipped. It's a long scale with a near perfect case. I think I got a great deal and I heard about it just like this, a post on this forum. They always have a big selection nice lap steels reasonably priced.
