Description
A smooth, comfortable player with a warm, rich tone & gorgeous acoustic resonance. The placement of the P-90 in the middle of the body where a natural harmonic occurs allows the guitar to produce some interesting overtones at times. Professionally set up & inspected by the experts at Cream City Music, so it plays & sounds marvelous.
Cosmetic Condition: Pretty good shape for being 65 years old. Various nicks, chips, dents & dings; scratches, weather checking & some finish wear. Overall the guitar has an ultra cool, true vintage vibe to it with a gorgeous patina.
Neck: 1-piece, chunky mahogany neck with nicely aged cream binding & tortoise side-dots. Dark Brazilian rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl dot inlays. Original frets are clean with practically no wear. Kluson Deluxe tuners with cream buttons are in perfect working condition. 1 11/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.
Body: Double-bound, hollow maple body with dual F-holes & Florentine cutaway. Long trapeze tailpiece & wrap-around bridge with nickel hardware. 5-ply black pickguard shows the typical curving & a small piece of the bottom binding has chipped off. Guitar weighs a delightful 5 lbs 12.2 oz. & is exceptionally resonant!
