Tom...I had the same three neck Fender years ago. A touring group came through town and had their Fender stolen. They were in a bind, so I sold mine to them for about $200.00. That was in 1968. Regretted it ever
since. Last one I saw was in fair condition for about $1100.00.

Once, in a fit of stupidity, I tore apart a C-3, built a new case (White) and mounted a Fender double lap steel in the position of a third board. At least I had the sense to keep the steel body.

Now, I'm looking at installing a Hipshot Trilogy bridge on an 8 string I've ordered.
(The one I'm trying to get shipped from Morrell). Morrell also makes an adjustable stand. You can stand or sit at the lap steel, instead of holding it on your lap.

Ah, boys and their toys...!
