Chuck Brattain did an amazing restoration on this late 40s Dual Pro. Makes me want to ship my old '48 to him right away!

As a shop teacher, I can really appreciate the fine work and attention to all the details. Refinishing a beater is a project I would love to do, just can't find a guitar. Fantastic restoration!!!!

Thanks fellows but all I did was take it apart and put it back together. A man named John Fitzgarld of Parreta acoustic guitars did the finish, my old buddy, and I do mean old, Jerry Wallace of True Tone pick ups rewound the pick ups and my friend Yancy, who is retared, polished the metal parts.
This guitar really sounds and playes GREAT

Delicious ...

I love the "Boxcars" ... the Rodney Dangerfield of high quality pickups ...
