This banner J-45 has a mahogany top and mahogany back and sides,
Original teardrop pickguard
Original - reglued - rectangular RW bridge with 2 pearl dot inlays and black bridge pins. Original small maple bridge plate.
This authentic and original guitar has tons of vibe and mojo. It belonged once to a musician called The Texas Drifter, We added a Youtube recording and a newspaper clipping in the pictures. The guitar sings and is very resonant with deep basses , present mids and characteristic trebles.
The guitar is in good shape for its age. Beautiful finish crazing on the top. It has a crack on the top (below the bridge) and a few cracks on the sides. They have been glued. A small hole is filled, where once the output of a pickup (now removed) was mounted.
The guitar comes with its original case with plush purple inner lining.
