Maple Shade, NJ that's right. it's a Gibson Epiphone very rare late 50's early 60's entry model plywood upright. made in Kallamazoo Mich. strung with Labella rope core 7710's with very low action for articulate, fast playing. definitely a jazzer's setup with the G and D string spacing a bit...

3/4 Upton Hybrid built in 2008, adjustable bridge, strung with Helicore Hybrids but I have Gamuts for it too. It has a French Brazilwood bow and quiver from Gollihur and a Hercules stand. It has some wear on the edges from the previous owner laying it on its side. Very good volume from this...

100 watts continuous 200 watts maximum My cats use this as a scratching post from time to time; the carpet covering is a little rough in places. The amp itself is solid. Speaker is good. Nice GK tone in a portable practice amp. For now I'd like to find someone local; I'll meet halfway...
