Bigsby Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 (edited) Thinking of thinning the herd a bit so offering this up for sale. This is a 1962 Airline Rocket Lap steel. Manufactured by National/Valco with THE classic lap steel pickup. This particular model is widely regarded along with the National New Yorker as one of the best looking laps out there. I acquired this from the personal collection of 2 time British Blues Musician of the year and all round lap steel god Son Henry. The main thing to say about this instrument is that it's the mintyest mint mint mint condition 54 year old guitar you will ever see. Truly looks like it was built yesterday. Comes with the original hard shell case which is a bit bashed but still perfectly functional. Looking for £550 or will possibly consider a trade for something cool. steel Edited July 31, 2016 by Bigsby 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flaneur Posted August 1, 2016 Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 A thing of epic beauty, with possibly the best pickup ever made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
