Description
What makes this guitar special: Aside from a newer bone nut, the guitar is 100% original & in great shape for its age. The Cherry finish is still very strong & vibrant despite some mild aging. The neck is silky smooth & plays like a dream anywhere on the fretboard. The pair of Pat No. humbuckers sound absolutely amazing & deliver warm, rich tones that seem to sustain for days. Professionally inspected & set up by the experts at Cream City Music, so it's ready to perform straight out of the case.
Cosmetic Condition: Wonderful condition for its age - various minor nicks, chips, dents & dings; scratches, weather checking & some finish wear, most notably on the back of the body. Overall the guitar looks really clean & has a really gorgeous character.
Neck: Slender profile mahogany neck with nicely aged cream binding & tortoise side-dots. Rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl double triangle inlays. Original frets are in great shape with hardly any wear. Kluson Deluxe strip tuners are in perfect working condition. 1 9/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod functions great.
