It features a thinline, semi-hollow body with an arched top and back made of laminated maple. The guitar has a bolt-on maple neck with a bound rosewood fingerboard and brass frets. It comes equipped with three "speed bump" single coil pickups known for their jangly bluesy tone. Each are assigned with volume and tone controls and a four position, rotary type switch is mounted on the upper bout. The hardware includes a floating rosewood bridge and a trapeze tailpiece as well as Kluson Deluxe tuners The original nitrocellulose lacquer sunburst finish is in good shape, with a bit of patina and a few chips on the back and edges. The neck is dead-straight and the guitar plays great.
