Hi Russ,
Yeah, it's interesting what we sell sometime. I haven't gigged since the late 70's when I was playing a 1958 Fender Bassman. I eventually sold it for around $ 4,000 thru Willie's American Guitars which is a guitar brokerage in St.Paul, MN. As the name implies, he only deals with American gear.
When I was gigging, we did a lot of Eagles stuff which on some tunes used a pedal steel. I thought very seriously of learning then, but alas, I never took the time. Now I have my 3K, an old upright piano and a 10 yr. old Roland. I also sold my B-3 about 8 years ago. No regrets there either.
By the way, here's a link relating to non-pedal lap guitars.
