Description: This National "New Yorker" lap steel has a great sound and stands out as an iconic and eye catching instrument. It was manufactured from the mid-1935 until the closure of Valco at the end of 1968. It was the sole instrument to have been produced throughout the entire lifespan of both the National/Dobro® and Valco companies. It was inspired by the Art Deco aesthetics of the Empire State Building, and remains one of the more desirable steel guitars from these companies! It went through a series of design changes. Overall length: 32 1/2 in. (82.6 cm.) Lower Bout: 7 in. (17.8 cm.) Body Depth: 1 5/8 in. (4.1 cm.) Scale length: 23 in. (584 mm.) Nut Width: 2 in. (51 mm.) Serial Number: V 2350 This is an earlier version of the New Yorker that dates to 1947. Features include the early Hawaiian, Chimes, and Harp tone controls on an original Stackpolf pot. It still retains a flexible and well working cable with its proprietary connector. This example is in wonderful condition and remains almost entirely original. The tuners are Kluson style, which fit well under the original covers. It also includes some case candy. The original tweed hard case is in rough condition. Excellent Condition (Very Nice)
