What makes this guitar special: A gorgeous piece of American history with a beautiful Crystalline floral finish. The guitar's got a a lot of great vintage mojo with a big, boomy sound to boot. Beautiful patina & a real joy to play. This one's a definite must-have for all those delta blues lovers.
Cosmetic Condition: Various nicks & chips in the finish; surface scratches & finish wear - mostly on the back of the neck.

Overall the guitar has a great look to it & is sure to bring many more years of enjoyment to the next owner.
