Category: Lap and Steel Guitars

Description Brand: Alamo Exact Year: 1950 Type: Electric Country/Region of Manufacture: United States
Up for sale is an Alamo Futuramic dual 8 console steel from the 1950s. The steel is in excellent overall condition. There's light wear all around and a cigarette burn near the tuners, but no structural damage or repairs that I can detect. One fretboard is slightly wavy but this does not affect playability. The single-coil pickups are nice and clear, a bit fuller sounding than early Fenders but with plenty of bite in the treble. It has a long 25" scale. The steel comes with its original legs and case.
