I'm a new member with a beautiful Marlen D10 pedal steel guitar for sale. I'm a guitar player and play lap steel also. I don't know a lot about pedal steel but I know this is a fine instrument. I believe it was built around mid to late '60's. The labels are gone but it has "Marlen" inscribed on each neck. I can't find a serial number. I would appreciate any help with specifics to pinpoint the age. The electronics are fine... The guitar sounds great! It has a three-way neck selector switch, and a two-way tone selector switch. The tuners are Klusen Deluxe. The pickup covers are a 4-ply green color, if that helps determine tha date. I removed the old strings to give it s good cleaning, I will put new strings on. It will need set-up adjustment. If you, or someone you know would be interested in this beauty please contact me. It comes with the original hard case. Thanks for looking. $2150

As for serial #, it would have had a metal plate underneath.

I may, in fact, be nuts. However, I am screwed onto the right bolt... Jesus!

Do you have any idea on the price for the instrument? Thank you.

Serial number may also be stamped into the bottom edge of the rear apron, near the keyhead. Winking
