Topic: rogue ea-3 lap steel experience?

has anyone played a rogue ea3 lap stel guitar?  I was thinking of trying one but the price on musician's friend (80$) makes me wonder what kind of value I will be getting.  I am not new to guitar but am new to lap steels and thought it would be fun to try a new instrument.  Pedal steels  are too pricey for just a musical experiment,
anyone?
