Northwest Vintage Guitars brings you a very rare and uncommon History HB295B in a bold purple burgandy. It's got P90 style single coils and a wonderful jazz box tonality. These were crafted at the famed Fujigen plant in Japan and the quality and consistency is apparent. The Bigsby-esque vibrato helps put a little shimmer on things and the the vine inlay gives it a touch of class.
It's a 24.75" scale, a 1.69" nut, .85"-1.0" neck depth at the first and twelfth frets respectively. 16.5" across the lower bout, 11.75" across the upper, and 3.3" thick. You get all the woody overtones of a big Jazz Box. 2V, 2T, and a 3 way toggle. Very P90 esque tones with the bridge reading 8.05 ohms and 8.10 at the neck. Chimey, warm and full. It's a great package with a straight neck, a working truss rod and a fresh set of USA Nickel 10-46 strings. The frets are just starting to show some wear, but play cleanly on a fresh polish. Comes safely packed in the case in the photos. 6.75 lbs.
The "History" inlay has been scratched out as pictured.
