This '49 shade top 00-18 is an unbelievably stunning guitar, with tons of vintage character and a pronounced mid-range tone. The mahogany back and sides with the spruce top produce a bright and punchy tone in the smaller 00 body. The Brazilian rosewood fingerboard is in amazing shape and will play great for years to come thanks to a recent refret. Other modifications include a replacement bridge and neck reset. Cosmetically it has gorgeous vintage wear on its top and back, but remains structurally sound for its next chapter.

Includes 60s era hard shell 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.
