Tulip Body Style
Serial number DG 841
Short scale 3/4 size
A guitar tech looked at this guitar and made the following comments. 1. good straight neck 2. minor cosmetic blemishes 3. Original pickup and original electronics 4. pickup voltage tested and assumed in good working order 5. but the pots for the switches show some corrosion and the output jack has lots of corrosion 6. when it is plugged in it buzzes and makes unhappy noises, but when the output jack is jiggled you can hear the pickup start to work. The guitar will need to have the electronics cleaned before it will work properly and possibly other work to get it back to sounding original. For this reason it is sold as/is 7. The case is original but it is missing the handle 8. the knobs and switch are likely not original 9. the guitar has some minor scratches and cosmetic issues including a hairline crack near the output jack.
