It is available in a natural or vintage Ambertone burst finish AND your preference of our proprietary low-gloss or the mint Stage 1 lightly aged finish. Lacking the heavy wear and tear of an instrument that’s seen considerable use, the Stage 1 finish with light cracking and crazing is inspired by those rare vintage instruments that were simply kept in the case and tucked away for decades. Our Stage 1 finish bears the marks of time but not the battle scars common on many vintage re-creations.Scale: 24.9 (000) /*non-compensatedSpacing: 13/4",21/4",25/16"Premium East Indian RosewoodHide Glue & Cloth Strip ConstructionAdirondack Top - Thinned to "110"Authentic Bracing Pattern with 1/4" BracesAuthentic-Inspired BlockAntique White BindingGenuine Mahogany 12/4 neckModified V with 1930's Style HeelLong Diamond with 1937 Authentic Head Stock Shape & ThicknessWaverly Nickel TunersAdjustable Truss RodHand-fretted Authentic Thickness FingerboardAuthentic 1937 Diamond & Square long pattern inlayAuthentic 1937 Golden Era Decal1930's Style Notched Bridge with Long SaddleProprietary Lacquer FormulaAuthentic 5-Ply Harptone Case
