A friend sent me a picture of this - it's in a second hand store somewhere in Alberta I believe. I don't recognize it, but it seems like an interesting artifact. The stand doesn't look original to me, but that's just a guess. Anyone know what it is?

Milkman amps may be interested in what is below it...

otherwise it looks like a one off homebuild.

I would guess a homemade doubleneck as well. It's very hard to tell from one unfocused picture of the side of the guitar.

Years ago Tom Bradshaw designed and made a few Z shaped stands to hold a pedal steel in a solid position.
That looks like it may be one of his so maybe he would have the answer as to who built that guitar?
