Hi folks.....
Posted this initially in the 'lap steel players' area....but maybe better here :D

....perhaps Basil might have some ideas on this one!! :?:

Am considering selling my Weissenborn...style 3 I believe....original condition.

I've owned this since 1980!!!

Any tips....forums I might visit...or info on any collectors 'out there' who might be interested, would be most welcome, as I suppose that no-one on this group could afford it!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

That sounds incredible! I wish I had the £££ for that! What's it priced at if you don't mind me asking?

You may laugh at most of us poverty stricken sods Kev :o but we do have some "well off" members.........

For example.... Bob Adams got a wedge big enough to choke a horse!!!
Whats a Gillie Bob?? never did get a translation.... I am studying the Scottish lingo in case I can get up there soon >>>>>>>

That is exquisite!

So, using my converter €5,600 goes to £4,429.61 at the current exchange rate! That one is just a tad out of my reach! :D

Your style 3 looks amazing, I really hope you get a buyer for it.

To be fair....RF Charle has had the style 4 at that price for a while now, and no takers....so his pricing is, most likely, a tad optimistic!
