Description

Freshly set up in-house by our esteemed Guitar Tech, this 1950s Colorama Archtop is dialed in and ready to play.   We've had a number of these Colorama guitars come through the shop over the years and we love them.  Usually they're pretty beat up and often have playability issues that only a neck reset can cure.  But this one is the best example we've ever seen. 

Nice clean appearance with minimal wear and tear for a guitar of this age.  Playability is not perfect but better than most budget 1950s archtops you'll find.  Comes with its original Hang Tag, too.  In short, this one's a keeper.  Excellent vintage condition.  Comes with Soft Shell Case.  Read below for more details and specifications.
