What makes this guitar special: 100% original & just recently acquired from the original owner who kept it in pretty good shape over the years.  The guitar has a warm, woody tone to it with with a nice, comfortable neck.  The bridge was pulling up just a tad bit when we took it in, so our luthier professionally reglued it & it's it perfect now.  He also heat pressed the neck so it's straight & plays great up & down the fretboard.  Professionally set up & ready to play right out of the case!Cosmetic Condition:  Good condition for its age with typical play wear - various nicks, chips, dents & dings; surface scratches, light weather checking & some finish wear.  Overall the guitar has a nice, played look to it with a beautiful patina.Neck:  Wide mahogany neck with cream side-dots & dark Brazilian rosewood fingerboard.  Frets are in great shape with no wear.  Slotted headstock with classical-style tuners in perfect working condition.  2" nut width; 25 1/2" scale length.  Body:  Solid spruce top with tortoise binding.  Rosewood bridge & multi-ring rosette.  Solid mahogany back & sides.  14 1/4" lower bout width; 10 1/4" upper bout width; 4 1/4" depth.  Guitar weighs 3 lbs 2.3 oz.Case:  Vintage chipboard case included.  The case is a bit rough with some stitching that's come undone on the outside & a portion of the interior compartment is missing.  Overall it's in good shape & serves its purpose well.
