Kalamazoo Archtop Guitar. I'm not an expert on these but based on the 14 3 / 4" lower bout I believe it's a KG-21, made in the 1930s. Solid spruce over solid mahogany, in good condition, especially for its age. One crack on the bass side has been glued and seems solid, other shown cracks appear to be just the finish as the wood isn't moving. Playing nicely but also suitable for further restoration.... more

In the case of this guitar, the pickup used and the placement yields an electric tone which comes remarkably close to the acoustic tone of the instrument which ... more

Experienced players know that. If you are thinking ??oh no, that can??t be good?? you may not be that experienced yet. Think of it this way: If you had a wheel bearing that was worn,... more

Vintage Archtop Guitar

Quirky old 1972 Guyatone with a booster switch and two p90s. They run on the hotter side especially with the booster - love using the neck for jazz and there is heaps of depth and personality in the tone but it was actually intended as a rockabilly guitar. If you put roundwounds on it, it sounds great playing twangier, snarly material.

Comes with a stock Bigsby style bridge - I have the arm off for storage but obviously included in sale
