DESCRIPTION
For your consideration a 1930s Stella Gambler in a Black finish with card decals! We’ve had a handful of Gamblers come through but this is our first big body long scale! This has the coveted Lead Belly scale length! 26.5″! It is currently tuned in C# standard!

Specs! This guitar is in good condition. It has several top cracks that have been repaired. It has a new bone nut and a new Rosewood bridge. Nickel plated brass 3 to a plate tuners. Bone nut with a 1-15/16″ width. The neck is likely made out of birch and has a depth of 1″ at the first fret and 1.5″ at the twelfth fret (V shape). Pearloid veneer fingerboard. Action measures 6/64″ straight across. Original 18 small frets. Birch body finished in black, several spots touched up. Card decals are in good condition. New rosewood bridge. Maple bridge plate patched and re-drilled. Comes with a non-original hard shell case. Weighs 4 pounds.

Such an extremely cool and rare guitar! Wonderful lower register, close to a cello! Great booming low end with nice round punchy treble. Covers many styles well but works especially well for darker haunting tunes! Pearloid fingerboard are always a shop favorite! The card decals are still in very good condition as well as it rosette! Super fun instrument just waiting to have songs written on it!
