What brand is this vintage lap?

I've seen so many over the years, they are starting to look alike. Is this a Harmony?
Auction on eBay.

It looks more like a Kay.
They made a number of steels with pointed headstocks like that one. They were also known to use similar pickups.

Here's one of my Kay lap steels. http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/r_shatz/detail?.dir=4be6&.dnm=1019.jpg&.src=ph
It's just a pretty face and not much else.

Except for the pickup and knobs, it appears to be identical to the Sherwood we were discussing just the other day. Whoever made one surely made the other.

Rich, some of my students have pointed heads!!!

Brad always puts the link in for me as I'm pc challenged, thanks.

That was the one from my A list post. I looked and you are right, that's it. BTW, it had no takers.

Betcha Jason Lollar could do wonders for those pickups! I think it's a pretty nice-lookin' guitar.
