Vintage 1940's Armstrong Airway Archtop


Very good to Exc condition


Spruce top, maple sides and back


Maple neck with (probably Brazilian) rosewood fingerboard


Herringbone binding


This guitar was in the same family for at least 60 years


The guitar doesn't show much play wear, other than light lchecking on the finish, which is very common on old nitrocelulose lacquer finishes


It does have a rather long finish crack on the top half of the sides. Very stable, finish only. Possibly from an older neck reset. See pics for reference.


Great playing and sounding instrument


Just set up with high quality .11's


Nice action, fun to play


Early 1940's  manufacture (Chicago, USA)


Includes non-original Guild semi hardshell case ('60s - '70s)


Will package very carefully for shipment


Thanks for looking
