What a killer guitar. This is a one-owner holy-grail of hollow body archtops. 1960 being arguably the best years for these guys with a nice comfortable neck that is straight with no issues and setup superbly. The never opened PAFs are boisterous and clear with perfect tone. The only blemish to report is a small ding in the finish between the bridge volume and tone knob and it looks like there was a small boring in the tailpiece (presumably for a strap button) that goes partially into the body but not clear through, everything is fully functional and original save the tuning machines that were starting to deteriorate so we swapped them out with modern Kluson replacements (originals included). The case is an original 5-latch and this guitar has all the mojo you need.
