1945 Rickenbacher Electro Lap Steel

William Gallagher · From: California, USA

Offering what I believe is a 1945 Rickenbacher Electro Lap Steel guitar. There is no serial number but my guess after some research is post-war. It has a thicker war-time neck (introduced 1940 & continued onward). This early version has the original spelling of Adolph Rickenbacherâ€™s name. It was later changed to Rickenbacker due to anti German sentiment. This headstock's T-logo is spelled RickenbacHer. The spelling changed to RickenbacKer in 1946. (Some 'H' spelled T-logo badges were put on early 1946 "transition" bakelites).

NOTE: I welcome input on the year.

All original condition. This is an instrument to play and display. It has excellent sound and is very eye catching. Bakelite body and white metal panels. In very good condition. Measures approximately 30 inches long x 9.5 inches wide.

Sorry â€“ no case.

Asking $1,250+shipping - All negotiable
