Vintage United Guitar Co. "Slide" Guitar w/Pick-Up (USED)
Our Notes: This funky little guitar came into our shop not too long ago. There's no logo or identifying mark on the headstock or inside the sound hole but after doing some research, we can confirm this is a United Guitar Corporation guitar - made between 1939 and 1960. The action was very high so, instead of resetting the neck, we decided to keep it as is, install a sound hole pickup, tune it to open d, and call it a slide guitar. The guitar shows signs of wear and age - scratches on the back, dings here and there - but nothing major. The original tuners are a bit stiff.
Discover a piece of musical history with this Vintage United Guitar Corporation guitar. These guitars are hard to find now, making this a very rare collector's item. Featuring a cream scalloped pickguard, & triangle inlays.
