~1949 National Grand Console Model 1050
This vintage national lap steel features 2 eight string necks is in excellent condition and has recently been set up in working condition by our in-shop luthier! It comes with a non-original case.
This unique instrument embodies the jet-age aesthetic, a fascinating piece from the vibrant postwar era at Valco. As a double eight-string version of the iconic National Dynamic, it not only captivates with its appearance but also delivers exceptional sound. The elegantly sculpted wooden body and neck showcase a striking early space-age two-tone finish in metallic green and cream. Enhanced with colorful back-painted Lucite fingerboards, the positions are indicated by various geometric shapes in vibrant hues. Between the two sections, a decorative metal control panel adds to its appeal. The pickups consist of standard Valco units, cleverly mounted beneath clear plastic handrests.
