Thinking of selling the 8 string lap steel that I built earlier this year but not sure what to ask. It's solid mahogany, 22.5" scale, 3/8" spacing and has a Rick Aiello 'pot belly' pickup. Comes with hard shell case. Here's some pics. THANKS!!

That looks sweet. I really like the "fry pan meets Magnatone" style.
Unfortunately, I have enough lap steels and the wife would not be keen on me having one more. no matter how cool.
But great job! |

Selling something you made is always hard. I assume Rick's pickup added to the price of the build overall and will determine what you need to get out of it. Only you can really itemize your costs and time. I'll give you $50.00 Canadian right now! Seriously, it looks like a honey. You'll have to find the right buyer. |

I love the Potbelly! I have one in my lap steel. What a beautiful vintage sound! |
