Today, Lawman Guitars is Presenting...
A beautiful, well played, Pro Setup, all original, 1956 Old Kraftsman L9206 Dreadnought guitar that looks, plays and sounds incredible.
We just got this guitar back from the Tech. He had to heatpress the neck but this old timer did not require a neck reset. It plays great up and down the neck with no fret-outs. All original to include the bridge, single line Kluson tuners, truss rod cover, frets, pickguard, et all! We even have the original case. Check it out!
We have no way to check the info we got from the previous owner that this guitar is a 1956. Try to date Old Kraftsman Guitars. Impossible... however, if you check out the finish crazing on this beautiful Solid Spruce Top as well as the mahogany back and sides, I think you will agree it has to be close if not from that year.

The guitar has a 25 3/4 inch scale neck with a 1 11/16 inch nut. 19 original brass frets with a Rosewood board that attaches at the 14th fret. The body is 15 1/2 inches wide at the lower bout and measures just over 40 inches in total length. X-braced body that just rumbles your belly when you play it. I have loved playing this guitar.

As you can see, this guitar was played a ton and was much loved. You don't get wear on the top, back of the neck and finger divots by playing it occasionally. I would guess it was used Professionally but no way to track that. Some buckle rash on the back side but no crack to deal with on this gorgeous guitar.

Check out the original Kay Case! Just as nice as the guitar. We reattached the accessory box lid and screws the sides of the box in. All the parts were still in the case. All latches, hinges and original handle are still with this beauty! Check those pics!
Beautiful but vintage so its sold as is no returns. Thanks for respecting that.
Be sure to check out all of our guitars, parts and gear!
Also, be sure to check out our over 300 vintage guitar demos on our Lawman Guitars YouTube Channel!
Thanks a lot! Lawman Mike at Lawman Guitars
