"Personalized" Electromuse nicknamed "Boat Paddle" 6 string with famous or infamous Eye Beam pickup.
Sounds fine.
Tone and volume controls work fine. Modern 1/4" jack. Scale measures 23" center bridge to center nut.
I bought this in an estate sale 7 or 8 years ago of a local player who passed. He was a sort of collector who liked to customize his gear, thus all the stickers, fret line traces, lexan panels etc. and gold paint.
It also had some labels on the back which have been removed, but the shadows are still visible.
Tuners, pup, controls and pup plate all appear to be original, but I know little about these. The fretboard and headstock are overlaid with transparent lexan.
I believe these were built in the 40's and 50's in the USA. I don't find a serial number anywhere.
There is no case or bag, but it will be packed well.
I will ship it anywhere in the conus for a $100 bill. Money orders please. No paypal.
Edit:I never noticed it before, but looking at the pics, looks like there are impressions on the headstock that might have been left from 3 or a plate tuners, so I would guess that the tuners have been replaced. |

Hi Jerry,
Unbelievable price on the Electromuse. I used to have one of these and sold mine for $250. You're right, these guitars with the lexan over the fretboard were made post WWII, around 1948. Shouldn't have no problem selling at the price you want for it, well worth it.
