I will list some more pictures today or tomorrow (watching the rugby at the moment). it is the one third from the left. Near mint 1994, NRP National Radiotone (non cutaway 12 fret wood bodied), all original aside from the strings, from the Don Young era, baseball neck, excellent action tone and playability, however need to create some space as the revolving door of instruments is spinning like a fan here at the moment £1450 (not looking for trades) can ship ideally in the UK due to the prohibitive customs and import duties.

44mm at the nut chunky C shaped neck probably carved by Don Young as this pre dates CNC machinery at NRP, looking around I have probably listed this too cheap as there is £500 between this and some used battered rubbish out there, the guitar is in excellent condition some miniscule marks but you will not see anything in the images. Original case has taken all of the last 28 years but still ok, a little of the vinyl is tatty but nothing of consequence. I am not a guitar dealer but an addict who currently is about to sink the ship with more stuff so passing on a little gem.
Pop round and have a look for yourselves whilst I am in clearout mode.

I haven't any money at the moment, but that headstock logo is the coolest thing!

Hi. How thick is the fingerboard at say the 5th fret. My 1133 has a neck like half a baseball bat and it's a bit thick.
Where are you based?
Cheers

Ken do you mean neck thickness as the fingerboard has little or no variation, neck at the 1st fret is around 25.69 the 1oth fret around 26.79, chunky but playable as you actually have some meat, although there was an interesting youtube discussion over how thin and fat necks sometimes through you off as when they are made well it just feels and plays right, and this one has some tunes in it.

Yes numbers made, numbers available but what you cannot factor in is condition, it will be off to the big old ebay soon although sometimes I wake up and realise what am I doing and why am I selling this  space and the eternal flame of something else at this moment. Regards Lee |
