1957 Fender Champ Steel

Serial # -04949. With its Desert Fawn tan finish, large spaghetti logo decal, ample chrome, and tweed side-pocket hardshell case, this steel screams 1950's Fender. It's a classy package, right down to the case handle! It's completely original too, with an untouched wire harness and bridge cover. It's been used, sure; a lot most likely, but still does so well what it was designed to - old country weeping steel. Add a volume pedal to the rig, and you've got a mighty fine poor-man's pedal steel. There are screw holes on the back from where the original owner had affixed brackets to screw legs into. We don't have the legs, but we will include the brackets should you want to find some legs to put with it.
