Exceptional condition. Serial number 03552.

Highly figured maple back and sides with two-piece bookmatched maple back. Silver Gotoh tuners with solid pearl buttons that catch the light delightfully. Matching silver Gilchrist tailpiece. Flowerpot inlay in ebony peghead overlay with Gilchrist script at top of peghead. Multiple ivoroid bindings throughout with black line seen at top and back of body, along side of fingerboard, and peghead. Flat ebony fingerboard with double-cut extension and pearl dot inlays.
