Description

c.1965 Ernani St. George Guitar. ".....The St. George company existed from 1963-1967 in N.Y. and California.This guitar is an example of the unique instruments that they brought to market.One of the better known names from the company is Paul Barth ,whose guitars sell in the thousands. It's noted that the St. George team and Semi Mosely(started Moserite guitars) shared ideas...look at the headstock. Very little information is available about these guitars but it appears to be Japanese made. This is the chance to acquire a mid '60's special guitar with it's own voice. Two of the tuning machines have been replaced with extra holes added. Fret wear is very light and the guitar plays well. There are some scratches about the body, almost all are on the back. No case or bag included. 
Guitar would benefit from a new set of strings and a good set up."I bought this guitar as I had never come across a similar guitar to add to a collection! Relocation means I need to reduce the collection - slightly! hence now selling some of my stuff.Many thanks for looking
