Up for sale is a 1960s Silvertone 1457 dual pickup / full scale electric guitar in red burst complete with its original case with an amplifier built into it. If you were a kid in 1964 and wanted an electric guitar for Christmas there is a very good chance there was one of these under the Christmas tree. I love these and think they are an incredibly cool piece of guitar history. This is a fairly well preserved example and has its original footswitch, functional tremolo and original Jensen speaker. Sounds great and looks oh so cool! 

Pro Setup in house and ships with its original case that has a built in amp

Weight: 6lbs. 3oz.

NOTE TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:

We want you to be happy with your purchase and we try to represent the condition of all used and vintage guitars as accurately as possible in our listings. Every used guitar shows some signs of play wear and vintage models even more so. We call out all areas of damage or unusual wear, and describe the overall condition based upon what is "normal" for the age of the instrument. Expect to see minor dings, finish checking, or other evidence of normal use and aging which may not be captured by photography or explicitly mentioned in the listing.   

We recognize that everyone has their own personal standard of what constitutes acceptable wear and tear. If play wear is especially critical for you, please contact us at the Shop for a complete in-hand description and to answer any questions you may have. Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us.
