The Steel Guitar Forum

I would like to build an 8 string C6 console steel. I would be interested in something to use for the body of this...could be most anything like an old maverick carcass, most any older student model or something outdated or missing parts, etc. Only real requirement is that it be cheap. Doesn't much matter to me if it has electronics, bridge, etc. as I will probably replace these for string spacing anyway. Tuners would be nice. Finish is not important as I would be willing to take it down and refinish the wood if necessary. Let me know what you have...I have a Rondo Dobro I might be interesting in trading. It is the square neck and is about a year old.
