Hi there everybody.
I have purchased this Regal Parlor and would like some help on it's age and history. I have searched the web and haven't had much luck finding out any info on this little beauty. Their is no model or serial #. Seller on eBay said it was pre 1954. I doubt that and think it is more like a sixties vintage. At a guess made by Harmony, Kay or Silvertone. The worn spots on the top are where three pieces of pickguard material are surposed to be stuck on. These pieces came with the guitar. I have had some suggestion that these panels could be tap panels for flamigo percussive type music. Anyway, all info would be gratefully received.
Cheers
Alan

I agree with you on the age. That would make a good slide guitar if you raised the nut. Just funky enough to look like it belongs in soneone's hands sitting on a porch deep in Delta Country.

This isn't a non pedal steel guitar, but a regular guitar. Moved from No Peddlers to Music.
