Details
We just don't see very many 1960s S model Dreadnoughts, and although this one has seen lots of playing time it's fully functional and very playable. Repairs include a replaced bridge that's slightly wider than the original, and the black pickguard has been replaced with the tortoiseshell pattern version you see here. The back cracks have been glued and reinforced by Gryphon's Repair Dept. It has been refretted. Tuners are original .
