Description

The Century of Progress was created to commemorate the Century of Progress World's Fair held in Chicago in 1933, and remains an uncommonly seen guitar from the pre-war era. This particular guitar has an extensive repair and modifications list but sounds and plays wonderfully! Comes with a chipboard case.

*When using Affirm, we charge an additional 3.5% fee on the total at checkout. The majority of our instruments are consignment, where CVG keeps a small percentage of each sale. To be able to cover the additional costs required to offer financing, we have to include a higher fee to the customer. The 3.5% fee will be included in and spread across your Affirm payments.
