Exceptional condition. Only has bare hint of strings touching the frets and no dings, dents or scratches.
     Sunburst slope shoulder guitar with long scale and 1 3/4" width at nut. Built in the tradition of pre-war "Advanced Jumbo" guitars, it has advanced scalloped hand-tuned bracing.
     Master grade quarter-sawn old growth Brazilian Rosewood back and sides and Adirondack Red Spruce top. Ebony fingerboard and peghead overlay, with beautiful delicate handcut abalone inlay pattern and JWalker logo in peghead. Ebony bridge with 'cut through' saddle. Ivory saddle and nut. Ebony pins. Very nice "late '30's" style sunburst. Firestripe pickguard. Finely crafted wooden bindings throughout, with multiple bindings on top edge with outside flamed Maple layer, flamed Maple single binding on back. The fingerboard binding can hardly be described, as Mr Walker "insets" the outer flamed Maple strip very cleverly into the side of the fingerboard without the Maple showing at top of fingerboard. Peghead is multiple bound with black outer bindings. Abalone soundhole rosette.
     This is a very powerful guitar... Lots of presence and power, with excellent balance, attack, sustain and projection. It is set-up very well and needs nothing.
     * Remember - John Walker was a key player when Gibson re-issued the "AJ" guitar in 1990. I would suggest that he may have more experience with building "AJ" style guitars than just about anyone.
