Here we have a 1950s Stella Sundale acoustic guitar. These colorfully painted 50s guitars really make us smile. This one is playable with medium action. Nice tone as well. But what makes these cool are the 50s aesthetics and two-tone color schemes they used. This one has a green and black body with pink top binding. It doesn’t get more 50s than that.
Basic Specs: Brass 3-on-a-plate tuners. 1 3/4 inch Rosewood nut. Hardwood neck (probably Poplar or Maple) with a 24 inch scale length. Big but comfortable Vee profile neck with a depth of .86 inches at the first fret and 1.07 inches at the twelfth fret. Painted wooden fingerboard with 18 frets and a flat radius. Wood bridge and stamped metal tailpiece.
This is a piece of 50s art that you can hang on the wall, but pull it down and play it, too. Comes with a clean newer softshell case.
