1949 Bigsby Steel Guitar ( Walter Haynes' )

This guitar was used as an original prototype for the first Sho Bud Permanent. So the orig necks are cut with a maple wood insert, and Sho Bud fingerboards, bridge rollers, rods and pedal board are all 50's Sho Bud.
The Pick ups, legs, and finish are all orig. The case is non orig. The scale is 25". Everything works and the guitar sounds great.
Apparently Walter was Shots orig partner. I'm asking 12,000. I'm open to offers .MY Ph # is 604 876 6103
