À propos de cette annonce
Up for sale is a stunning 1962 Guild T-100 "Slim Jim" in near collector-quality, excellent vintage condition. Proudly crafted in the highly revered Hoboken, NJ factory, this completely unmolested thinline archtop is a beautiful time capsule from the golden era of American guitar manufacturing.All-Original & Unmodified:Unlike most 60s instruments on the market, this T-100 is 100% stock. It features the original finish (no overspray, no touch-ups), original factory frets with plenty of life left, the iconic original harp tailpiece, factory floating bridge, and original open-gear tuners. The pickguard, control knobs, and internal electronics/pots remain entirely untouched. The action is low, the liability is remarkable, and it sounds incredible plugged in. You might want to address a scratchy pot if you were the new owner, but aside from that this thing is in a really good shape.The Original Franz Single-Coil:Positioned in the neck, the single original Franz pickup is the crown jewel of this instrument. It works perfectly, delivering the bright, woody acoustic transparency and rich, articulate low-end snap that vintage jazz, blues, and rockabilly players crave. This one runs at right around 4k. Condition Details:Cosmetics: Rated in Excellent condition for its age. The sunburst finish retains its gorgeous luster and shows beautiful, authentic vintage weather checking (crazing) across the body. It has minimal play wear, no major dings, and zero structural cracks or repairs. Never a had a headstock break and no reason to consider a neck reset. There is a slight green patina visible in the finish, as common on these vintage instruments. Some finish wear at the lower left bout.Neck & Binding: The neck profile is straight and comfortable, and the original binding is entirely stable with no rot or separation.Electronics: All original as far as I know. The volume and tone pots turn smoothly with minimal vintage scratchiness and excellent taper.No Case: Sadly, the original case fell apart. I will pack well in a gig bag.This is a rare opportunity to own a highly clean, uncompromised piece of Hoboken-era Guild history. Shipping to the continental US. Fully insured via Reverb Safe Shipping. Sold as-is due to vintage nature; no returns.
