Description

What makes this guitar special: A superb player with a clear, crisp tone & sweet high end ring. The slender neck is super comfy to play & allows for hours of enjoyment. The neck is straight & plays great up & down the fretboard. Professionally set up by our luthier with fresh strings & low action, so it's ready to play straight out of the case!

Cosmetic Condition: Good honest play wear with that cool, true vintage look - various nicks, chips, dents & dings; surface scratches, weather checking & some finish wear. The bridge had a small crack in the bass side that was filled & reglued. Great playing guitars tend to show quite a bit of wear & this was definitely someone's "go to" guitar. A gorgeous look with a beautiful patina.

Neck: Slender profile mahogany neck with nicely aged cream binding & tortoise side-dots. Beautiful rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl trapezoid inlays. Original frets show some wear, but have plenty of life in them. Kluson Deluxe tuners are in perfect working condition. 1 9/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod works fine.

Body: Slope shoulder dreadnought with spruce top finished in 3-tone sunburst. Rosewood bridge with adjustable saddle. Tortoise pickguard & multi-ring rosette. Mahogany back & sides. 3-ply top binding & single-ply back binding. Guitar weighs 4 lbs 13.8 oz.

Pickup: P-90 single coil pickup - 7.88K ohms. Master volume & tone tone controls with gold "top hat" knobs. All electronics are in perfect working condition.

Case: Original hardshell case included.
