This is a 7-string model and is completely original. It is set up with A6 tuning (low string to G#). I haven't played it for months and want to make room for something else. It's in good shape considering the age. The original case is cool but not very functional as it's starting to fall apart. The pick up is clear and strong. It does make noise only when adjusting the volume and Master Voicer (tone) knobs.

This features Herb Sunshine’s original adjustable pickup design and adjusting the knobs has much less effect than raising or lowering the entire pickup. This is accomplished by turning the thumb screws on either side of the hand rest. The Master Voicer tone control blends between the pickup’s natural sound and two capacitor settings. This is similar to the tone control on 1940s National New Yorkers, and, as with that model, the most natural and useable sounds are to be found from the pickup’s unfiltered signal.

Asking $750. This includes shipping to continental US and paypal fees. Stephen.
