Allen-Melbert 8 string lap SOLD

Post by Eric Dahlhoff »

Keeping with my "1 in 1 out" rule, I am going to sell my 8 string lap steel made by forum member Bob Allen.
Bob gave me a good deal on it and I'm going to pass that along. $275 + shipping. (PayPal is fine if you pay the fees)
Comes with a TKL gig bag. It's in very, very good shape and sounds good too. I put felt pads on the bottom to keep it from slipping. I'll remove them if the buyer wants.

I got this to try an E-13 tuning, and this is how Bob set it up for me...
L-H: B D E G# B C# E G#

Of course you can put what ever tuning you want on it.

22 1/2" scale. Geo L SS-10 humbucker pickup.

Email is best (not PM's)
No dealers, please. I'd like to sell this to a player.

I own a 7-string Melbert. They are great guitars. At this price, you can't go wrong.

Thanks guys.
I love it too, but "1 in 1 out" is the rule.
Someone will get a very nice deal :D

Ok. Sorry that I pm'd, but I've always liked to post on the open forum.

I'll let somebody else have a shot at it. Thanks.

Good deal

No worries Curt, email is just easier for me to get to than the forum PM system.
I packed it up & got quote from UPS for CA to NY of $30. Priority Mail is $47. So that's the ballpark.

Shipping prices are just stupid these days. :\
