Description
Condition: There are a few very light surface scratches throughout the entire instrument and a very small amount of corrosion and blemishing on the metal parts. The pearled finish is in exceptional shape for its age! Neck is in great shape. The original nut partially broke and a metal nut was installed over it. The metal nut works just fine. The felt on the back has worn away entirely. All electronics and parts are in perfect working condition.
Body: Solid body with rounded bottom and graduated upper shoulder in a great looking pearled finish. Nickel Dwight logo and one piece nickel tailpiece, bridge and control plate. Black plastic Art Deco pickup cover and dual plastic control knobs.
Neck: Square neck with black and grey fingerboard, plexi overlay and a 1 7/8” Nick Manoloff metal nut. There is a piece of foam between the broken original nut and the metal nut for a better fit. Three-on-a-strip vintage-style nickel tuners, 23” scale length.
Pickups/Electronics: Original single coil pickup with master volume and tone controls.
Pickup: 5.61K Ohms.
Weight: 5lbs, 4.2oz.
Playability/Sound: This lap steel has an awesome vintage look, feel and sound. The single coil pickup provides a bright sound with a great presence. The tone control can easily be used to get a warmer Hawaiian sound. The slimmer neck is extremely comfortable for any style of slide playing.
Case: Includes original hardshell case.
