How often does one of these come around, and what might one expect to pay for it?

| There is, or perhaps was, a couple of similar steels for sale at shops in Toronto in the last few months, and they were asking around $850...Jerry |

Really? I was sort of under the impression the triple necks were less common than that. |

| Triples are less common than D8's for sure. Capsule Music in Toronto, has had one on their website for months, at $799. Doubles are more popular due to size and weight issues, I would guess. And six string lapsteels are the most popular of all...Jerry |

Thanks for the info. Went to their site and, lo and behold, behind the T-8 pictured are two D-8s! Guess that illustrates the point. Now if they only had an S-8 of the same type and vintage. That seems to be the hardest to come by. |
