1950 National California Natural
Here's a 1950 National California Model 1100. Rare, 17" size archtop, that plays & sounds fantastic!! No cracks or breaks. All parts on the guitar are original. There are two small filled holes at the bottom from a previous tailpiece, but the original is back on. Based on the Gibson L5 (for a lot less money), the guitar features a laminate spruce top, flame maple back & sides, Brazilian Rosewood bridge & fingerboard, bound body, and a beautiful sounding single coil pickup in the neck position. Perfect jazz and/or blues guitar! The neck has a comfortable chunky/round profile (not a baseball bat), with exceptional playability. The action is low from top to bottom! The frets still have life left as well. The beauty is ready to go! HSC included..
