Hi, I'm sadly putting this up for sale; I've owned it for many years, and purchased it from the original owner, who'd had it for close to forty years. It's a very, very nice 1966 KAPA CONTINENTAL, made in Silver Spring, Maryland. Serial number is 23762It's a beautiful sunburst Kapa, one of the only ones I've ever seen. I took very good care of it, and used it on several tours and recording sessions.Condition is a solid 8.5, with the only flaw being a tiny chip to the back of the body; otherwise excellent condition, and unlike the last one offered here, is 100% original, original screws even, down to the original and incredibly loud Hofner staple pickups. Very low action, and everything works smoothly and fluidly, including the original tremolo system. WILL SHIP PACKED VERY CAREFULLY IN A GIG BAG, WHICH WILL BE THEN PACKED IN A GUITAR BOX. SATISFACTION GUARANTEED.FREE USA SHIPPING for anyone who buys this using BUY IT NOW. ALL offers will be subject to standard shipping charges (I ship Fedex Ground or UPS Ground, your choice - the total package will weigh 20 lbs)all reasonable offers will be considered, but this is one of my favorite guitars that I've ever played, so please, no lo-ball offers.. thanks!Please also feel free to write me with any questions about the guitar; I'll be more than happy to help!
