The neck is mahogany. 100% complete and original. No damage or repairs. It has minor scratches, scuffs and the finish has weather checking. Overall the guitar is solid and in EXCEPTIONAL condition for being 50 years old. The label on the inside reads, "Made in Finland, SL-2, Espana, Finest Guaranteed Quality, Imported by ESPANA GUITARS, 5 Union Square, New York 3, N.Y." It has fresh strings and it comes with the Alvarez case you see in the picture. The case is an expensive hard shell and the guitar fits inside it nicely.
These are fairly rare and nicely made. Who else on your block has a guitar made in FINLAND?
