Usual disclaimer, I've nothing to do with this site (I just like it)! guitar-auctions.co.uk/catalogue-preview-thursday-14th-december-2017/Lots of lovely stuff in the upcoming December auction. Especially Lot 141. Busker Delta, est £200 - 300. Lot 159. 1931 National Triolian, est £1000 - 2000. Remember the 25% fee if you're tempted to bid though!

Lot 31 described as a lap steel is actually the rare Rickenbacher Electro Spanish model...round bakelite neck, though likely bowed somewhat.
Expected prices seem high especially after adding 25%

That Triolian is the one that I saw at the London Guitar Show and noted on here that it was understrung.

The premiervox of lot 31 is sort of a Rickenbacker but made here from assembled parts. The plates are different from Rickenbacker plates, I parted one out earlier this year.
They are weak at the neck body join.
I was with someone yesterday who has the real deal and had a little strum.
Anyway Michael please delete any previous posts for this topic as I do not want the others to know what is happening next month!!!

I used to have one of these Rickenbachers, but due to the weakness of the bakelite neck and the lack of metal frets, the square neck ones are better musical instruments.
Lee, I don't understand your comment? (Anyway Michael please delete any previous posts for this topic as I do not want the others to know what is happening next month!!!)
Shine On Michael

I do - Lee is trying to eliminate the competition - He's got his sights on something......

That might be the case, but I have better things to do!
