7 string lap steel for sale

Postby Mcneilwaeasteel » Sat Dec 09, 2017 2:39 pm

Due to storage problems under the bed I am offering for sale my seven string lap steel, built by myself just last year, it is now surplus to requirements due to a " new " guitar entering my life! :lol:
It has a scale length of 24 & 5/8" and the mahogany it is made from, was originally part of the gantry in the Glasgow Locarno ballroom, it sounds as good as it looks and I am asking £250 for it :guitar:

Very nice! Is that a Bruce Wei fretboard?

Thanks Will,
Your comments are appreciated.
It's not a Bruce Wei fretboard, I suppose you could call it a " wee Glesca " fretboard it was made in a shed :lol:
It's one I made up from a bit of dark walnut with frets made from inlaid powder and finished off with guitar fingerboard decals, the hummingbird decal came from Ebay via Japan. :roll:
This started off as a 6"X 2" plank and I just cut out the neck and added more and more to it, the scale was determined by the length of the plank hence the unusuall size. :guitar:
Regards
Robert
