Description

This 1937 shade top 000-18 is an unbelievably stunning guitar, with tons of vintage character and a pronounced mid-range tone. Despite its age, it remains in very good condition with moderate signs of wear. It has undergone several repairs to ensure its long-term playability, including a neck reset, refret, planed fingerboard, replaced bridge, bridge pins, and saddle, glued center seam separation behind the bridge, repaired back crack on the lower bout bass side, and cleated and repaired side crack on the treble side lower bout. As a result, this guitar plays beautifully and delivers a rich, warm, and balanced tone. Period correct HSC included.
