Short scale, with plenty of mojo!
This example from circa 1960 was sold through the Sears Roebuck catalog at the time, and was an affordable 3/4 option. Finished in a beautifully worn copper finish, this example boasts its original lipstick pickup which sounds excellent. Wiring harness has been replaced as have the tuners. It appears new strap pins have been added as well. Super interesting construction featuring a combination of masonite and poplar for the bodies, with the necks being poplar with rosewood fretboards.
Cosmetic condition is reasonable for its age, with some of the most beautiful and tasteful looking wear you'll find on one of these instruments. Hardware is fully functional, and plays with a low action. Includes a gig bag.
