DESCRIPTION AND PHOTOS FROM WALKIN' WEBSITE

It is a 16-inch wide full hollow model, "Aruba", which is made of custom-made hard maple instead of the commonly used soft maple. The body uses a plywood top that combines figured hard maple and spruce, a figured hard maple plywood back, and a single figured hard maple side. ･The maple neck is set up with an ebony fingerboard.
The bridge assembly is carved from high-quality genuine ebony wood and the maple tailpiece combined with custom-made brass parts are all custom parts made by Walkin Kobo. The mounted pickup is a humbucker that uses Alnico V magnets custom-made by Kent Armstrong USA, and when amplified, you can enjoy a very rich jazz guitar tone that is clear but not thin.
In addition, this "Aruba", its model name, comes from the title of a song recorded in the album "Circles" by jazz legend Jim Hall. Based on the inspiration obtained from the actual machine (made by Jimmy D'Aquisto) used for the recording, we developed the idea and designed each part with the taste of Westville Guitars. Currently, it is a full hollow model that is also active as a favorite machine of top artists such as Mr. Jesse van Ruller and Mr. Jack Lee. ...

We highly recommend the Westville "Aruba" for those players who are rooted in the traditional jazz guitar sound of the great vintage instruments but also demand the highest grade of comfort, playability, and beautiful/modern design."

The guitar was originally fitted with a custom Kent Armstrong pickup. The original owner swapped it out with a Seymour Duncan Seth Lover that is now mounted on the guitar (sounds great). Both pickups will be included in any sale. The guitar will ship in a strong and sturdy arched Boblen BL-J16 case. Please add a flat fee of $180 for shipping and insurance within the Continental USA. Local pickup in Denver, CO is fine as well.
