Description

A very rare Mahogany top version of this classic, you don't see too many with this variation come up for sale. Like all of most of these from this era, it sounds and plays amazing. Has the really nice chunky neck, which I love and think is very comfortable, but some people don't. This guitar has definitely been played, and has had the tuners replaced, the bridge is not original, looks to have had some side cracks repaired somewhere along the line. But other than that I believe it is in all original shape! Lots of nicks and dings on the body, and beautiful finish checking throughout. It seems there may be/ have been a small split on the top, but everything is completely stable. Finish has been worn off in spots on the neck as well. There has been a K&K pickup installed as well. Comes in a Canadian era carton case, blue/gold interior. Case is also in great shape, aside from missing one of the bumpers on top. No licks included, reach out with any questions or more pictures you desire, Thanks for looking!
