1950's Grand Modèle Erable

This is most probably the last version of the model..13.3/4 frets to the body..!! exactly like Michael Bauer's "Beast"..laminated birdseye maple back and sides, Grand Modèle, 680mm scale. gone is the 3 piece neck.. we have here a modern feel of a neck..there is a faint trace barely visible shadow of a pickguard. it still is outfitted with the the tuners that turn backwards and the original tailpiece. the guitar is crack free, the geometry is perfect. the instrument is practically weightless.. 100% original..no restoration of any kind.. superb playability and sound..you will not find a better example..
