Condition: Very good overall. Various surface scratches, small nicks, dings and dents throughout the finish. The back center seam had some separation that has been expertly repaired and re-glued by our master luthier. It is showing no movement whatsoever and is not affecting tone or playability. All electronics and parts are original and in perfect working condition.
Body: Double bound single-cutaway with solid hand carved arched spruce top, flame maple sides and hand carved arched flame maple back in sunburst finish. Ebony trapeze tailpiece, Ebony compensated saddle, dual bound “F” holes and a bound Ebony pickguard. Body dimensions: 16” x 3 ¼”.
Neck: Maple neck with bound Ebony fingerboard, black dot fret markers and a 1 3/4” nut. Grover tuners with Ebony buttons, 25” scale length.
Pickups/Electronics: Floating Eastman mini humbucker in the neck with master volume control mounted to the underside of the pickguard.
Pickup: 7.71K Ohms.
Weight: 5lbs, 9.5oz.
Playability/Sound: This is a beautiful sounding jazz guitar. The pickup is highly versatile and warm up when the volume control is rolled down. When the volume is dimed, the sound is very snappy with a great attack yet exceptional warmth. The neck is extremely comfortable for chords or lead work.
Case: Includes original hardshell case.
