This is a 1954 Fender Stringmaster Q-8 steel guitar. It has some “mileage” on it and I’ve included some pics of the wear spots. I don't have the original case, I had this one made for the guitar. It’s listed at $2200, and the guitar is at Steel Guitars of North Country: http://www.steelguitars.me

Gosh Chas! I have only seen one other early issue quad like this, all completely intact. That was back in the '70's! Where was this one hidden? Behind Leo's sofa?

Jon, I bought that one a long time ago and I fooled around on it, but I never played it out. I have a nice regular scale D-8 that I did play out and way back there was a player in LA that wanted a quick lesson on C6. He showed up with a long scale Stringmaster D-8 that sounded unbelievable, so when this turned up,I jumped on it.
