Jay,This is a local built guitar, and was built in Northwestern Ohio around the late 60's to early 70's. I was called at one time by them to look at one. We drove up, I played it, but it really didn't do much for me with Sho_Buds being more avaialble at the time. I don't remember a whole lot about them, but that's definatly what it is.

It looks like the kitchen table we had in our recent 'Always - Patsy Cline' production.... |

I wonder how the pulls (pushes?) are tuned. I don't see anything on the end plate.Take a close look at the picture on the front of the owner's manual. It looks like the pedal rods fan out as they go down to the pedals. ------------------

The only thing I remember about the Norwood steel was that its legs folded up into the body. Sorta like a card table. |

Looks like he stole the legs off of somebody's walker.
And I'd like to see how the steel is mounted to the legs. Very unconventional.Whoops,Paul answered my query just as I posted.[This message was edited by David Cobb on 21 October 2003 at 09:00 PM.] |

Even at worst, if you could get it for $350-400, you could spend a few bucks more and have a nice 12-string lap steel AND a card table. Vaat a deeeeel!------------------
