Freshly inspected and set up in-house by our esteemed Guitar Tech. In Very Good condition with moderate wear for an instrument of this age, including light scratches, small dings, and natural aging of parts and finish. This guitar has been heavily modified during a recent restoration by a professional luthier and it presents as a unique instrument.
Some of the mods include a new nut, a refret with Stainless Steel frets, and replacement of the Nitrate fingerboard inlays with Mother-of-Pearl material. The original bridge and tailpiece were removed and a new Tone Pros intonateable bridge was installed. Original holes were filled and redrilled for the new bridge. The top of the instrument was then refinished to create an as-new look. The original 4 push/pull pots were retained.

NOTE TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:
We want you to be happy with your purchase and we try to represent the condition of all used and vintage guitars as accurately as possible in our listings. Every used guitar shows some signs of play wear and vintage models even more so. We call out all areas of damage or unusual wear, and describe the overall condition based upon what is "normal" for the age of the instrument. Expect to see minor dings, finish checking, or other evidence of normal use and aging which may not be captured by photography or explicitly mentioned in the listing.
We recognize that everyone has their own personal standard of what constitutes acceptable wear and tear. If play wear is especially critical for you, please contact us at the Shop for a complete in-hand description and to answer any questions you may have. Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us.
