I HAVE A TONEMASTER LAPSTEEL. 6 STRING W.HARD CASE.
I WAS LOOKING FOR INFO ON WHO THE MANUFACTURES WAS?
I THINK IT MAY BE A "SUPRO" MODEL. BUT I AM NOT SURE. THERE ARE NO MARKINGS OTHER THAN "TONEMASTER" ON THE HEADSTOCK. I HAVE SEVERAL PICS. BUT CAN ONLY LOAD ONE AT A TIME. IS THERE ANYWAY OF DATING THIS? AND VALUE? THERE ARE NO CRACKS OR CHIPS. IT APPEARS TO BE IN V.G.C.
THE 3 LEGS ARE MISSING. I WOULD LIKE TO FIND 3 THAT FIT.
IT ALSO CAME WITH AN OLD BLACK TONE BAR/CORD AND PICKS.
ANY INFO WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED! THANKS!!

It's made by Supro. 1960ish.
Looks like a Black Raja bar. My favorite (for electric) I can't get enough of them. Lead filled so they are heavy and the plastic is hard enough to produce good tone and not be mushy. Most important to me is that they don't fly out of my hand like some plated bars can.
