Epiphone Crestwood made in the mid1970’s by Matsumoku model ET290N. To the best of my knowledge it is all original apart from the fact that a previous owner has levelled the frets flat to the maple board removing the lacquer in the process !
Very clean body no significant scars.
Both pickups work however there is no sound when engaging the neck pickup on its own. I fancy the 3 way switch requires replacing.
I bought it with a view to refretting but 20 yrs later it is still in the same condition as when I purchased it ! Good project for someone, they go for decent money when restored.
On 26-Apr-24 at 17:40:31 BST, seller added the following information:In response to a couple of requests. The frets are still present but have been levelled flush with the maple board. I have strung up the D string and it plays up the neck with no fretting out and decent intonation. It is effectively a fretless guitar ! I have also tested the electrics further confirming the faulty 3 way selector. Both pickups give a signal when the middle position is selected, but no signal when neck pickup engaged on its own.
