Maton Stradivarius guitar 1960's w/ case
Just arrived fresh from a barn find !!! This Maton Stradivarius model was built between '62 and '66 and we believe it to be a Model 457 . ( please enlighten us if this is wrong ! )As you can see from the pictures It is need of a heel repair . It is a very cool guitar in good condition considering it's age and either a great wall hanger or fix the heel and play away ! We have it tuned quite low and it plays ok and has a very moody vintage sound . Includes original case which is beat up but still functions .
