1954 National 1124

Here's a rare one for you! The Solid Body Electric Spanish, or Model 1124was made for a couple of years in the early 50's. It's a small guitar witha MASSIVE voice. Measuring about 11" wide, this guitar is definitely"carry-on" sized, but security might have problem with how loud it screams!Two original Vinyl-covered pickups (they're floating, too... and it's asolid-body; go figure), volume and tone controls for each, and non-originalon-of mini-switches replace the lever switch that would have been mounted onthe opposite end of the pickguard. We put in 4 new pots as the old oneswere shot, but we used the old capacitors to keep the sweet tone circuitthis guitar has got. We kept the old pots for you though - they're cool,and they go nicely with the original hard shell case. 24 3/4" scale, verynational-feeling big and fairly square neck. Well set-up by us and in needof a good tube amp to cozy up too!
