Vintage Roger Custom thinline electric guitar w/ case
Here we have a rather cool and very rare Vintage Roger guitar .
Roger guitars were made in Germany between the late forties and early sixties by Wenzel Rossmeisl, a jazz guitarist and responsible for inventing the "German Carve" - a two inch wide groove hand carved around the top edge of the guitar. The name "Roger" was used after his son who also became a guitar maker, firstly with his father and then in the USA with Rickenbacker using the German carve on many models; and later with Fender.
This particular thinline custom plays great and has a rather vintage tone with good output from the pickups .
Pearloid guard and headstock decor are a stand out and are in good condition . Original tuners are in good working condition .
The original burst finish has some lovely checking , the binding has aged nicely too.
This is a very unique guitar , great to play and gets heaps of comments !!
