This is a beautiful, very rare 1949 National 1100 California Blonde arch top hollowbody electric guitar in very good condition with a hard shell case. The binding is split a touch, but stable under the heal on the body (picture), with a chip on the heal plate binding. It has some slight scratches and dings from being a 67 year old guitar that has been played. This is a great sounding jazz guitar with a unique floating Gibson pick guard style pickup set-up, mounted to the fingerboard, with pick guard input jack (not into body), and a beautiful choice birdseye maple back.  It has a full baseball bat "C" neck with very little fretwear, and covered tuners.
