{"product_id":"1932-circa-regal-751","title":"1932 (circa) Regal","description":"No serial number.  Among the coolest depression-era Chicago flat-tops we've ever offered, this unknown Regal (similar, but much more ornate than a Model 10) is the pinnacle of \"Vintage-Chic\".  From its inlaid gray\/green pearloid pickguard and matching headstock to its floral motif top decals, this one has it all.  Check out the expertly applied faux-rosewood grained finish. Have a look at the bound white pearloid fingerboard with position dots that match the pickguard and headstock. Heck, even the tailpiece is classy!  The icing on the cake is the original \"Kant-Krack\" hard shell case and case-candy that goes with the guitar - someone loved this guitar, and spent as much on the case as they likely did for the instrument back when it was new.  In '32 the case sold for $19.50, whereas a slightly less fancy Regal Model 10 guitar was priced at $10!!  Aside from the obvious, the guitar features a solid spruce ladder-braced top, and solid birch sides and back.  The action is high at 8\/64ths, but still quite useable in the lower positions, however the frets up past the body joint are quite uneven and buzz out at the 12th and 13th frets.  With a slide, the guitar plays great and sounds delightfully good; it is rich and open with a warm harmonic resonance and surprising volume.  Comfortable V-shaped neck with a definite L-00 feel, 1-3\/4 nut, 24\" scale length.   About the same dimensions as a Size 1 Martin, the Regal is a comfortable couch guitar, too. \u003cbr\u003eWith original hard shell case\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sold\"\u003eSOLD\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"REGAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53610395369838,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/3660\/5550\/files\/regal__0208.jpg?v=1790964017","url":"https:\/\/folkwaymusic.com\/products\/1932-circa-regal-751","provider":"Folkway Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
