Description
This is a fantastic player-grade J-50 that sounds and plays incredibly well! Despite an extensive list of repairs, it retains the mojo and tone characteristic of early post-war J-50s. The repairs include a full refinish, a replaced bridge, a replaced/reinforced rosette, new tuners, a plugged hole from a previous input jack, an added strap pin, a replaced nut and bridge, new bridge pins, a removed pickguard, a refret, re-glued braces, a side separation re-glue on the bass side upper bout, a replaced bridge plate, and a missing truss rod cover. Despite these changes, this guitar plays like a dream and is quickly becoming a shop favorite.HSC included.
