Part of the "Map" guitars that were quite popular in the early '60s, this gorgeous Westwood 77 features a solid maple body & neck, double single coil pickups along with an under-saddle pickup, and finished in a gorgeous trans cherry. Professionally inspected & set up by the experts at Cream City Music, so it plays & sounds wonderful.
