Ampeg Dan Armstrong Lucite 1970, Natural

Introduced at the close of the 1960s, the Ampeg Dan Armstrong Lucite quickly became one of the most distinctive designs of its era, with a clear Plexiglas body and interchangeable pickup system. This 1970 example has seen thoughtful maintenance, including nut slots filled and shimmed, a truss rod nut replacement, and careful fret work for improved playability. The maple neck is a nice substantial size and is topped with a solid Rosewood board. With its striking transparent body and solid construction, it stands as an iconic piece of Ampeg’s short but influential venture into guitar making.
