Decided to keep it. Go ahead and close it. thank.s



For sale, a beautiful custom made, one of a kind 12 string lap steel by our own Sonny Jenkins. Sonny did a great job as you can see from the photos. 12 strings and keyless. Sounds wonderful and looks to match. I am the original owner, and I had Sonny build it for me last summer. I'm selling it for a few reasons: my wife and I are downsizing

Regarding the steel, I never did get used to the the keyless tuner. and with my recent knee and foot surgery, managing the steel on my lap was getting difficult. It really needs a stand.

No case, as is sale. Perfect condition, great sounding. Currently in an extended Eharp tuning but of course you can put anything you want on it.

I paid $650, let it go for $500 plus shipping CONUS. NOW EVEN CHEAPER: $450!

Actually I don't know off the top of my head. I'll have to measure it. Sonny might know.
