Description
Brand: National Exact Year: 1930's

This is a National metal body resonator tenor guitar from the 1930's.  The serial # is 2179 P. Needs some minor restoration work.  Beautiful green finish.  I just got this in yesterday.  I put a six string tailpiece on it to get it strung up. The body has one dent (see photo).  Finish is good.  I have not opened it up.  The neck is straight. Action is too low.  The fingerboard has cracks due to dryness.  Fingerboard good. Can be repaired.  Changed nut.  Logo missing.  Original tuners work.  Will ship in some type of case for shipping protection purposes.  Thanks for looking and best of luck!
