SOLD ELSEWHERE

This is a great little guitar and plays wonderfully. Everything about it screams "Use me." However, it's not all great news. The headstock was repaired by a master following a partial break. Apparently there had also been some sort of damage repaired at the top of the neck. The body is 'naturally aged' - some might want to get some polishing compound on it. The saddle is cut a bit low to get very low action. You'd need to replace the saddle to bring the action up. The tuning machines have been replaced. The originals are in the case.

That said, this is a very nice acoustic-electric guitar with a beautifully aged unburst finish, double bound slope shoulder D body, spruce top, and mahogany back and sides. Other features include a P-90 style pickup, mahogany neck, and bound rosewood fretboard with trapezoid inlays. A non-original hard case included.
