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.  _________________ Brad’s Page of Steel

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. |

Thanks guys..
The friend will remain a friend because we're not buying .
Our expertise isn't lapsteels so I needed to tap the mother load here.
btw...Brad, I id'd the steel thanks to your website.
