Cosmetic Condition: | The guitar has aged nicely; the finish is glossy with heavy checking throughout the body and neck, and numerous small chips/blemishes. There are a couple repaired cracks in the top, and the back of the body has some heavier scratches. The back of the neck is smooth and comfortable to play. |
Serial Number: | 12870 |
Tech Notes: | Plays well with medium action and moderate neck relief. There is a swoop upward at the end of the fretboard beginning at the heel and the neck is slightly underset, but the guitar plays cleanly set up as it is. The frets are narrow and medium height with minor wear. This brand and the factory order number date to the 1930s. |
