$650 · 1944 National Lap Steel vintage electric guitar

Have you seen one of these before? I haven't!! And I have owned dozens of lap steels and Valco products. This is EARLY! Looks pretty awesome considering it's age. Tarnishing on the control plates and pickup/bridge. A little lifting of the mother-of-toilet-seat around the tuning posts. All original with the exception of an added 1/4" jack to replace the OriginL integrated cable Looks awesome, sounds awesome and you're not going to run into another. The case is a disaster but it's original and it's here. this is the Ry Cooder pickup from his famous Coodercaster.
