I wish you good luck on your search. These sorts of items are extremely hard to find (and when found, are usually already attached to an existing steel guitar).

| That's a mighty guitar! Mine is by far my favorite console guitar and sometime would love to own a triple neck in good shape. God luck with the logo hunt. |

Yeah.. Kinda feels more like a pedal steel to me which is one of the things I like. But I like the sound even better.  I don't know about yours but mine even sounds cool unamplified - sorta like strumming an unplugged ES335.
These don't ever get the respect of the older CGs but I think they're great guitars as long as the pickups are working like they should. |

Wow, that surprises me. I recently acquired a C-530 and the narrowness of the spacing is challenging me. Admittedly, its my first 8-string, but I keep going back to my 6 string Supro and Magnatone. I leave them at band headquarters but use the C-530 for home rehearsal so I keep practicing on it. |
