What makes this guitar special: 100% original & in amazingly clean condition for its age! The Cherry finish is still quite bold & really hasn't faded much if at all. Being a '60 the neck profile is on the slimmer side & feels great up & down the fretboard. And of course the real magic to these Juniors is the single P-90 bridge pickup, which packs a serious wallop! Rich & creamy tones with magnificent sustain - what else could you ask for?
Cosmetic Condition: Really great shape for a guitar that's coming up to 60. Exceptionally well-cared for over the years with very little wear - various minor nicks, chips, dents & dings; surface scratches & mild weather checking. There is a "2" pressed into the back of the headstock just above the serial number, indicating the guitar was a factory second. However, there are no issues with it structurally or electronically. In fact it's in fabulous playing as well as cosmetic condition.
Neck: Slender profile, one-piece mahogany neck with cream side-dots. Brazilian rosewood fingerboard with mother of pearl dot inlays. Original frets are in great shape with very little wear & tons of life in them. Kluson Deluxe strip tuners are in perfect working condition. 1 11/16" nut width; 24 3/4" scale length. Neck is straight & truss rod is functioning.
Body: Double-cutaway, one-piece, solid mahogany body. Nickel, wrap-around tailpiece & tortoise plexi pickguard. Guitar weighs 7 lbs 0.8 oz.
Pickup: "Dog ear" P-90 single coil bridge pickup - 8.55K ohms. Master volume & tone controls with black "top hat" knobs; original pots & "bumble bee" cap; 3-ply black jackplate. All electronics are in perfect working condition.
Case: Original faux alligator chipboard case included - also in great shape!
