First of all this a relisting as the individual who decided to bid & then not follow through with the purchase. Please if you bid do not be this guy. Also, please disregard the shipping charged shown. I cannot seem to modify to my satifaction. Shipping charges will vary according to your location. This is a cool guitar made in Japan in the early 70's. Crestwood, Ibanez & many other copies of the ES-175 Archtop were made in the plant that made this one. These are very well built & some have even said that they built these better than the American made ones back in the 70's. This one has been made fretless. The frets were shot so I made it fretless. For my purpose I set it up for slide & single note plays. All hardware is new. Top of the line Gold Kluson Tuners, Gold Gibson Style Tailpiece, Gold Gibson Style Tunematic Bridge, Gold Probucker split Pickups, Gibson Style Pickguard & Deluxe Gold Bracket, Black/Gold Hat style Knobs, Etc. Etc. I bought the body a couple years ago & put it together as you see it. Sounds very good & as mentioned you get some really neat sounds from her. Get multiple tones with the split humbuckers. Guitar is in great condition. It has a small neck so great for the ladies or anyone with small hands but playable by just about anyone. It will come in hardcase for shipping purposes. Please keep in mind that the guitar is over 40 years old so it is not new or fly shit perfect. It does have dings & scratches & a small hole repair were someone had put a strap button by the neck heel as seen in the 3rd picture. Even if you get it fretted for a couple of hundred bucks or less you have an incredible guitar at a great price.
