Location: Chicago | I bought this guitar used in 1975 and always treated it lightly. I'm selling because it's time to downsize my collection.
It plays, sounds and looks great! As the photos show, everything is original. I accentuated any flaws on the photos, but only the scratch at the bowl's base is readily visible. A photo shows a small defect in the finish only on the front of the guitar and a small scratch. It is in play-ready condition. No case but I will pack with great care.
I am asking $499 plus shipping. USA only. A local pick-up in Chicago would render a very substantial savings.

Location: 6 String Ranch | This guitar arrived today. It is excellent. Treated lightly is a gross understatement. It's perfect. Action is a tad high but between a neck tweek and lowering the saddle a smidge it will be A+. s/n 2777 stamped in the neck block, hell, I probably did that back then when I was working there summers. |

Location: Chicago | I am so happy that you are satisfied with your purchase. Not being a regular on the site, I had no idea who you were until the check arrived. The guitar has a great history and it will live on. I love the guitar and you will, too. Peace. |
