Description: Warm greetings from Japan. Thank you very much for visiting our listing. 1961 Gibson Melody Maker Jacaranda Fingerboard + Full Original + Case Moreover, it comes with a very popular alligator case. All pegs, bridges, strap pins, and electrical decorations are completely original. The strap pins are plastic and break easily, so it is very valuable to have an original from a similar era. This student model at the time was apparently sold as a affordable version. However, at that time, there was an abundance of ``good wood,'' so I heard that they did not use different types of wood because of the superiority of the model. Instead, cheap lights, pegs, strap pins, etc., including the pickup, are used. But now it great. As parts often change over time, a complete original like this is extremely valuable. About the guitar body The body and neck are made of very high quality Honduran mahogany, and the fingerboard is Jacaranda. If you look closely at this black-black jacaranda, you can enjoy its bewitching heathered eyes. Because the material is good, the raw sound is wonderful. The neck is straight and the truss rod is in good working order. Both the nut and frets are original, but have been slightly worn down. However, it does not freak out and can be played normally. There are also many dents on the back of the neck. There are no cracks or breaks at all. Touch-up makes it smooth and easy. The electrical components still have a cheap sound, but that's the beauty of this guitar. If you don't like it, it's a standard single size, so replacing it might be a good idea. However, I would like you to never give up on the original. High value. Although it is not shown in the photo, I removed the pickguard and checked the contents. All are original and there are no differences. About the case It's a affordable item made of paper, but the atmosphere it has is wonderful. Unfortunately, the back is roughly cut off. However, since you can't see the inside and it won't fall out, it still functions as a case and can be carried around. The handle part may have been cracked before, and there are signs of repair. The joints are made of hot wire, welded and sanded Also, there are often no clasps, but this one has 3 securely attached. It is now a product with high historical value. The truss rod cover is not included. There are marks , dents , discoloration and paint peeling. Please inspect pictures for condition reference.
