1930-3 National Style 1 Tricone

A rare gem, a one-owner fresh from an estate sale. What can I say? I wasclearly the first person ever to remove the cover plate, and virgins arehard to find these days. "Fun!", you say? Try it some time! This guitaris so clean that many people in the last few days have overlooked it,thinking it was a new one. In our pictures, we have accentuated the slightsurface wear and natural aging of the nickel plating. The cones arepristine, with the original cardboard and felt gaskets carefully cleaned andput back in place. The frets have no wear, as it was always set upHawaiian. We gave them a crown and polish job, to make them feel better.The neck angle is fine for a slide player. If you do much fretting you willwant the neck reset. We rarely offer guitars that need a reset, preferringto ensure the job is done well here in our own shop. However, this one'sfine for many players, and just too clean to mess with unnecessarily. Theaction measures 11/64 right across the 12th fret, the neck relief isperfect, with no excessive forward bow.

How does it sound? How do you think it sounds?! Turn a Brozman CD up loud,close your eyes, remember to breathe...! The guitar is all original,including the nut and saddle, tuners, and best of all the Original HardShell Case. We are offering it at a price that leaves headroom for a neckreset, should you choose.
