Hi, i just picked up an old Champ Lap Steel serial #02298 which I was told was a 60's model. I'm suspected it might be a 50's model based on pics i've seen and the tweed case it came with. can anyone help me identify it? thanks...

Now that rates a Holy Schmokes on the T2 Scale...that is one clean lap steel. That is a legitimate piece of Fender History there especially with the original hard shell tweed case! A great guitar.
