This does not belong in the <U>Electronics</U> section, so I'm moving it. My guess is it's a Lap Steel Bar. |

"Nick Manolof" had a lot of guitar and Hawaiian guitar instruction books & stuff and Haw. conversion kits out in the 30s & 40s. What you have is probably an old style bar ?? !! ( My guess !! ) |

Manolof bars I have seen come in steel and weighted plastic. I like the larger plastic (3/4") on some model steels. Like maybe a bright Ric model 59 or NS or a Magnatone/ Dickerson with a lot of top end. The plastic bar can carve off some harshness where a steel bar might take the fillings out of your head. |
