Description

What Makes This Guitar Special: Here's your chance to get a great deal on a true player's guitar. Low weight all mahogany construction, a great feeling neck with just the right amount of heft, and an ultra cool vintage vibe you'll never get from a reissue. The pickups sound great and this guy is just a blast to play. Freshly set-up by the pros at Cream City Music, this sweet double cut will arrive ready to rock any time you are.

Cosmetic Condition:There has been a repair done around the entire heel of the neck and glue lines can be seen around its perimeter  (see all photos). After our master in-house luthier examined the guitar, he has determined the repair has completely stabilized the neck and that the instrument functions just as it should. The original vibrato tailpiece has been removed and the compensated bridge is being utilized in its wraparound configuration. The first three frets have been significantly worn down on the treble side, but notes still ring clearly and the guitar plays very well. There are also scratches, dents, dings, and honest play wear throughout. While that's a lot to list off, this guitar makes for an excellent player and is packed with character and great tone.

Neck: A very comfortable medium-thick "C" shape mahogany neck, Deluxe Kluson tuning machines function perfectly, 22 frets are clean overall with the wearing on the first three frets previously mentioned. Rosewood fingerboard with pearloid dot inlays, white side dot markers, 1 9/16" nut width, 24 3/4" scale length. The neck is straight and the truss rod has been tested and is functioning properly.

Body: Double cutaway contoured solid mahogany body, wraparound compensated bridge tailpiece, parchment pickguard. Guitar weighs 6lbs 9.1oz.

Electronics: Dual single coil pickups measure 7.18K ohms at the neck and 7.11K ohms at the bridge. Dual volume, dual tone controls, and three way pickup selector switch. All electronics have been tested and are working perfectly.

Case: Semi hardshell case included.
