  • Model: Model 1105

  • Finish: Blonde

  • SKU: GS6658-A

  • Handedness: Right

  • Made In Year: 1958

This unique and rare vintage National 1105 electric from the Chicago based Valco company features a solid but small maple body (around 12" at its widest point), humbucker-sized single coil pickups, and six tone/volume control knobs. Condition is good - we note finish crazing, some expected finish dings, and a small piece of the pickguard is broken off near the jack. The bridge was replaced with a Gibson ABR-1, it's missing the plate to cover neck heel, and the tuners are most likely non-original, though they are a period correct upgrade. Electronics are functional and the tonal options are extensive!
