Description

A very special year for the Duo Jet, 1957 is the only full year that featured both hump block style fingerboard inlays and DeArmond pickups. This is also the much sought after version that George Harrison played leading up to 1963. This particular guitar also has a Bigsby like Harrison's Duo Jet; in this case, it was added after the fact and includes a dogbone bridge. It has also had a refret, finish touchup on the top, a repaired bass side crack, and some binding repair. Comes with its original patterned hard 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.
