This is a Silvertone 1448 from the early to mid 60's. The bridge was moved back by the previous owner (and apparently played that way somehow, in an "experimental punk band”.) The bridge has been returned to the correct location, and it now plays very nicely. Sounds amazing in a way that only these guitars do. I do not have the original case.
I gigged with this guitar for years; the lipstick pickup sounds amazing for blues (especially for slide!) Guitar is super lightweight Masonite, with a small/medium size neck. Short scale, so it plays very easily.
If you’ve always wanted a vintage guitar but couldn’t afford one, here’s your chance!
