Description

There's a little bit of buckle wear on the back of this guitar, but virtually no fret wear. The frets are just as big and proud as they were when it left the factory nearly than 50 years ago. The neck is typical of late fifties, quite chunky and round in profile.

The tailpiece is chrome when it should be nickel on a guitar of this age, so that's certainly been replaced and its lost the strap pin from the end at some time its life (still, theres no strap pin at the top either so it looks like you'll be playing this fine friend sitting down.) The tuners are very clean given the age of the guitar, but its in such good overall condition that they could be original - there's no sign of them having been replaced.
