Busato Roundhole Gypsy 1940
Unieke en zeer zeldzame round hole Busato uit de jaren 1940. Busato's zijn notoir moeilijk te dateren omdat er, zoals in dit geval, geen serienummers, logo's en/of stempels te ontwaren zijn om een ​​indicatie te geven. Dit is de allereerste ronde hole Busato die we zijn tegengekomen, en voor zover we kunnen zien is dit de enige ronde hole Gypsy Jazz Busato die momenteel op internet te vinden is. De meeste Busato's met round hole, en dat zijn er niet veel, zijn flattopmodellen die qua vorm en constructie meer lijken op Martins en Gibsons uit die tijd, hoewel ze wel vaak een Gypsy Jazz staartstuk en brug gebruiken. Deze gitaar is gemaakt van gelamineerd esdoorn voor de achterkant en zijkanten en een ceder bovenkant ombonden met meerdere lagen van verschillende kleuren hout. De zwarte, geverfde slagplaat heeft zes typische Busato "diamanten" inleg. De hals is 3-delig wederom typisdch voor Busato - bestaande uit een walnoot hals met ebbenhouten middenstrip, typisch voor kwaliteitsgitaren voorzien van een ebben toets met messing frets. De twee buitenste delen van de gecompenseerde ebbenhouten brug hebben abalone inleg en het koperen staartstuk is nieuwer. Staat is "Very Good" met de verwachte gebruikssporen, de top heeft drie gerepareerde cracks, de finish is her en der bijgewerkt en de tuners (hoewel oud / vintage) zijn niet origineel. Inclusief nieuwere koffer. Consignatie.
Unique and very rare roundhole Busato from the 1940s. Busato's are notoriously hard to date exactly because, like in this case, there are no serial numbers, logo's and/or stamps to give an indication. This is the very first round hole Busato we've encountered, and as far as we can tell it is the only round hole Gypsy Jazz Busato currently on the internet. Most round hole Busato's, and there are not a lot of those, are flattop models more in line with the Martins and Gibsons of that era although often using a Gypsy Jazz tailpiece and bridge. This guitar was made using laminated maple for the back and sides and a cedar top bound with multiple layers of different colored wood. The black, typical Busato shaped pickguard has six -again typical Busato- "diamond" inlays. The neck is again typically Busato 3-piece consisting out of two outer layer of walnut and an ebony centerstrip and was fitted with an ebony fretboard with brass frets. The two outer pieces of the compensated ebony bridge have abalone inlays and the brass tailpiece is newer. Condition is "Very Good" with the expected signs of use, the top has three repaired cracks, there are some touch-ups of the finish and the tuners (although old/vintage) are non-original. Includes newer hardshell case. Consignment.
