The Magnatone Dickerson lap steel is a vintage electric steel guitar that reflects the transition from early experimental designs to more refined mid-century instruments. Originally produced in the 1930s and 1940s under the Dickerson brand and later associated with Magnatone, these lap steels are known for their distinctive art-deco styling, compact body shape, and innovative pickup designs for their time.

They typically feature a solid wood body, a single powerful pickup, and simple controls, delivering a warm, rich tone with a slightly gritty edge that suits Hawaiian, blues, and early country music. Players and collectors value them for their historical significance, unique sound character, and the role they played in the evolution of electric string instruments.
