You found it you can have it.
You can have Goldie too, she's currently at Cotten's for sale, along with the Venetian which is silver, so you could get silver and gold bookends for this one.

Way overpriced. These things were cheap "fake" resonator guitars made by Slingerland in the mid-30's. The coverplate is there purely for decoration as there is no resonator cone underneath, just a birch-ply top. They sound exactly like you'd expect a cheap plywood guitar with a hunk of metal screwed to it to sound. Worth a couple of hundred at the most just for curiousity value.

Tell 'em it was previously owned by the great GW Williams. Then the serious bids would really start rolling in.
