I've a friend with what I believe is a 50's Supro Clipper, a pretty basic lapsteel. s/n V5598

Anyone care to suggest a range of values for this guitar? poor-excellent?

Thanks

The Vintage Guitar Price Guide says between $275 and $325 USD in "excellent" condition. Adjust downward for actual condition and level of your friendship. Wink

That price guide is vintage itself, as you'd have to be rather lucky to find any steels now day's for under $400, especially with a known name in ex. cond.

Our expertise isn't lapsteels so I needed to tap the mother load here.
