It's a 24 & 1/2 scale. Is there legs? Everything original and working?
Thanks Dennis

I'm guessing the age is 1967 or later because that's when Klusons gave way to those Schaller-made tuners--at least on standard electrics.

The scale is 24-1/2.
I just played it and it is clean.
Top neck is C-6, bottom is G Dobro. Lots of fun.
Should find out the year today if he knows.
I know that it may be marked under one of the ash trays
but I don't want to take it apart.
