National Dynamic 1954 Natural Archtop

Very cool archtop with crazed finish. It seems to have been in a basement for some time as the finish is very damaged/flaky towards the bottom and top. The side has been reglued and is very solid but the cosmetics are its only down fall. The neck bolts have a plastic covering that has cracked and been glued. All parts seem to be original. Minor upgrades are; felt under the pick guard, brass bushing for pick guard screw, new thicker ground line with silk covered wire period correct and lastly a new tuner button on the D tuner similar in style but not the same tulip shape (taken from an old banjo tuner). Neck has a small crack in the finish but is very solid with its steel reinforcement.
