Thought I would report. Plenty of lap steels by a few different vendors. Saw a rick frypan and other early models, stringmaster, supros, magnatones, etc. Show ends at 5 today, goes 10 to 4PM tomorrow.

There were a couple of different vendors with lap steels, but nothing that really caught my interest. The short scale Rickenbacker A22 was interesting but really overpriced in my opinion. One vendor had a number of different lower end lap steels, nothing worth writing home about, and at least two different Fender Champions where the original pickup was removed and replaced with a more current pickup. The vendor said he'd also offer a Seymour Duncan Antiquity pickup instead of what was installed...
Overall a relatively quiet show on Sunday, not much going on. The best deal there was a Gold Tone banjo for $350.
Of course, I'll be back next time...
