The Vintage Silvertone Thin Twin

Files under Other Site Review | Posted by OtherSite
Silvertone thin twin

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.
