Here's The Run Down:
This is a Super Cool And Hard To Find 1951 National Aristocrat 1111 2 Pickup Electric Archtop Guitar also referred to as the "Jazz Special" that's in incredible shape over all for its age, plays excellent and sounds great! It is in the cosmetic condition shown, so be sure to see all of the pics (more available upon request). I tried to take really good pics, so you can judge for yourself (see pics). This guitar is all original without exception, including the original & rare bridge/pickup. The finish was professionally black lighted and is 100% original and repair free. The finish does have some minor checking and flaws here and there as pictured, but still extremely respectable for a 70 year old vintage guitar. The hardware is in good shape showing only minor discoloration. There is only minor fret wear and nothing that I would consider to be actual buckle rash.
This Vintage 1951 National plays incredible with a very straight neck and low action! Although I think its set up perfectly, everyone has their own preferences. If your not happy with its set up, it will be your responsibility and cost to have it set up to your liking. The action is below 3/32" at the body with a great neck that's adjustable at the heel It plays amazing from one end of the fingerboard to the other. NO neck repairs or neck issues what so ever!
The Original Brown Case is in good shape for a case from the 50's. All latches, hinges and handle operate as they should. The exterior will definitely show some wear and flaws as you would expect. (see pics).
Make sure you view all of the pics and ask questions if you have any concerns before buying.
