Description
What’s special about this guitar: This is a great sounding 1960s Italian made Estey guitar. This guitar offers a unique hollow body design with excellent sounding pickups and a super comfortable neck. This is a very unique piece that is well-made and sounds fantastic!
Condition: This instrument is in very good overall shape for its age! There are various light surface scratches, some small dings and some finish cracking throughout the guitar. The finish cracks are all minor and do not go all the way through the wood. Fingerboard and frets have moderate play wear and plenty of life left in them. The neck is nice and straight with very comfortable, low action. The nut has a small chip that does not affect playability, otherwise all electronics and parts are original and in perfect working condition.
