I have been searching the web for a couple weeks, and can’t find a single photo, drawing or ad for this one. I am trying to identify a Guyatone that I got at a swap meet in the S.F. I have had many guitars over the last 47 years. Even in its original state its value is only about 1,500 at best. Now before someone has a hissyfit that i’ve ruined a “vintage” guitar, and diminished it’s value, remember it had already been painted five times before. An outstanding job! Shoot, ol Wilson Picket hisself played this guitar back in 66 or67. I just wish he could have seen the finished guitar. passed and he did get to see the oak veneer and he really liked it. I had started the refinish project before Charles. Never stripped! Just sanded and a new color applied. This guitar had been re-painted five times previously.

While not quite perfect, I'd give it a 9/10 condition, with just a couple small nicks and/or scuffs. Even the original HS case looks almost like new. The bridge still has the orig foam mute in place and it looks almost like new. The fretboard and frets are super clean and shiney, and actually look almost unplayed. Neck is a 30.5" scale, is very straight, feels almost like playing a Jazz Bass, and fingering is low and easy. It sounds VERY powerful, big and fat.and the mini-humbucker adds just the right mids and highs. I tested it for operation and it plays great, pups are very quiet, all electronics work as they should, and the 3-way switch gives 3 VERY different tonal options. If you buy it, this is the way you will get it as is. This is exactly as I bought it.I haven't even cleaned it! It looks to be all orig and very complete to me. Amazing condition!
