This is a wonderful 1940s archtop! A solid carved spruce top 40s Vega C-56 that is as clean as can be! With the dearmond FHC from the 60s (my personal favorite version of the guitar mike) it makes for an absolutely gorgeous sounding electric archtop guitar with a marvelous natural tone that is reminiscent of the great 20s-50s swing guitar sounds.

An inconspicuous volume and tone knob peek out from under the pickguard, and the output jack is tastefully placed at the strap pin location. Don’t miss out on this lovely archtop that competed with the Gibson L-7 of the same era. (And did a pretty good job competing if you ask me!)
