Product Description.
Top spruce, side back maple, fingerboard and bridge ebony, neck maple, Grover gold peg change, original tortoiseshell pickguard, double X bracing, double parallelogram position inlay,
DOVE from the 1970s with double X bracing, spruce top, maple side back, ebony fingerboard and bridge, serial number indicates that it was produced between 1973 and 1975, and the pegs have been replaced with Grover gold ones. The pickguard is original but has some deformation, lifting, and cracking due to age. There are heavy play marks on the soundhole and between the pickguard and bridge. The paint on the neck is peeling from playing, and there are signs of use commensurate with the age of the instrument. The heel of the neck has a hole filled in for a strap pin, and a strap pin has been installed on the side of the neck. There is an attached pickup, but it does not produce any sound. Nut width is about 42mm, slightly thin 3 piece neck with thickness close to early 60's. Angle is correct. The angle is correct and there was plenty of room for the truss rod to work. The frets are a little worn, but can still be used. The string height is about 2mm on the 6th string side at the 12th fret and about 1.8mm on the 1st string side, which makes it easier to hold! The shimmering treble tone is appropriate for a high-end model! It is well-balanced and fingerpicking sounds beautiful! Please take advantage of this opportunity! Comes with a hard case.
