This is a 1920's -30's Bradbury brand guitar. Serial number 2402. This guitar came in rough non playing condition. The top was caved in around the sound hole. The top was taken off and braced back to a flat condition. The bridge was missing so a new one was made with a fret wire saddle. The action is good at .110 presently. The finish of the guitar is mostly original patina with some touch ups. There are some cracks forming on the back that do not show on the inside. CA glue could be used to keep them in check but thought the new owner could do that if they please. When I got the guitar there were rattle snake rattles inside. This was a practice in Appalachia in the early 20th century. Look up the history of rattles in instruments. The guitar has a sweet sound and plays nice. Please ask any questions you may have. This is a restored vintage guitar . That is sold as is no returns. If you look at my feed backs I have happy customers. ( Since the time this guitar was listed the cracks in the back have opened up. They have been glued and are now stable but the finish on the back is different from original. No biggie to me but might be to you. Still a great little guitar.
