Looks nice but that might be a bit of a high price for that model. It's not one of the "cool" ones from the 50s.

I owned one of these years ago as well: nice little guitar to play around with: I remember that the electronics left a lot to be desired...

The 3/4 variant of this model along with an old Gibson tube amp of the same year is what I learned on from about 1960 until 1969 when I returned it to my truck-driving neighbor just before I moved out of the house into my own place. A few years ago, I missed by about a month the chance to buy the whole rig back from him for about a grand. It wasn't necessarily a sensational model, but his had special meaning for me.
