Description

As you can see from photos this guitar was rarely played. The fret wear is practically none at all. There are finish nicks and normal finish crazing for its age (1956) but it really is very clean. The pick guard looks remarkable as again shows how little the guitar was played.I was able to  find original catalog info on the guitar and it has the coolest neck assembly that is easily adjustable. Check out the original patent. I don't know why this isn't still used...possibly the expense makes it impractical. It is well made and has all original equipment. The case is a genuine LIFTON case and in generally good condition with some cloth covering missing in an area at the top left. Doesn't hurt the integrity of it.Electronics checked out good and with no noisy pots.Shipping a flat fee of 30.00Good Luck and serious bidders please.Be sure to check out my other auctions. I've gotten to a point in my life where I can't keepstoring guitars. Need to let them find a home where they can be better appreciated and played often.
