Magnatone D-8 Double Steel Guitar in Portland for $400

These 8-string double steel guitars are mostly used for Hawaiian style music but they can also be good for Country. Either way this is a very nice deal on a great vintage instrument.

There are two versions of this instrument - this looks like the earlier one with a 22.5" scale. The later version has a 24 1/2" scale and twin pickups and two knobs per steel.

Tidbit: The great Hawaiian steel player Jules Ah See was known for using a Magnatone D-8.
