This is a great example of a bizarre 60's, made in Japan guitar. It shows both age and wear, but is in overall nice shape with no cracks, breaks or repairs. For a guitar that's 50+ years old, I'd say it's in good condition with the cosmetics of a natural relic.

 

Original tremolo arm is included. Original strap buttons are installed. On the back of the headstock, it says "Steel Reinforced Neck." Neck plate says Made in Japan.

 

The pickguard is metallic and depending on how you shift it in the light, it has stripes This would look hot under stage lighting.

 

Guitar is untested. I don't currently have an amp or interface to plug into. To cover my bases, I'm saying this is a project guitar. It may need some TLC, or it may work perfectly fine once you plug it in.

 

It's missing a tuning button, which can be purchased online from Stew Mac for $2 (http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Tuners/T...ner_Knobs.html).

 

My original plan was to install vintage style slot-top Klusons with plastic buttons, the ones on Fender Mustangs, but never got around to it. If you're sticking with the original open-backs, I'd suggest using WD40 on the gears.

 

I have crazy GAS for a Divided by 13 and trying to raise funds.

 

These are hot right now. Don't miss your chance!
