Silvertone Thin Twin

Posted by Jon in • Crazy Guitar Designs

Silvertone thin twin
I just found this Vintage Silvertone from 1957-58. This instrument is actually for sale for $1449 and according to the 1957 Sears catalogue has “Curly maple top and back. Mahogany sides. Hand-polished finish. 2 built-in pickups. Volume, tone control. 3-way selector switch”. It also has a glued-on, fully bound rosewood fretboard, 19 frets. It has real mother of pearl block inlays for fret markers. Apparently it is in very good condition, a bit of wear and tear here and there but then it is 50 years old. Personally for that money though, I can think of other guitars that I would prefer.

First of all, thank you for commenting on my blog, I hope you come back for more wink I also like your blog, I am even a RSS subscriber.
Regarding this guitar, indeed, for that amount of money I could also think of a few guitars I could buy

Hi! I’ve added you to my feed reader too, this guitar is the kind of guitar that would be a nice addition if money was no object. Probably not one that you would play very often.
