GIBSON NICK LUCAS SPECIAL TENOR GUITAR (1937)

GIBSON NICK LUCAS SPECIAL TENOR GUITAR (1937)
EC-, sunburst finish spruce top with X-bracing, sunburst flamed maple back and sides, 14-fret mahogany neck, tortoise plastic firestripe pickguard, 19-fret Brazilian rosewood fretboard with fancy Nick Lucas varied-pattern inlays, rectangular Brazilian rosewood bridge, black peghead with pearl script "Gibson" logo and fleur-de-lis, w-b-w double-bound body and fretboard, w-b-w soundhole rosette, offset "GROVER PAT." banjo tuners with ivoroid buttons, cream-colored bridge pins, 14-3/4" lower bout, 22-25/32" scale, 1-5/16" nut width, 4-1/4" to 4-5/8" deep body depth, large round label on inside of back with photo of Nick Lucas in tuxedo with his signature model guitar. Sounds great. And can you spell R-A-R-E? As a 6-string the Nick Lucas Model is rare, but as a 4-string (and especially in maple) it is virtually non-existent. We have heard of only one other maple NL 4-string. With red-line black OHSC (green lining, small hole in the case in the endpin area, replacement handle), price reduced (SN:94561)
