1974 D'Aquisto Flat Top SN: 101
Legendary luthier, Jimmy D’Aquisto was known for his innovation of the Archtop guitar, but he did also make 16 flat tops from 1973 to 1984, denoted with serial numbers 101-116, and here we have the very first flat top SN: 101 that was started in late 1973 and finished in early 1974. This beauty was handcrafted with a spruce top, flamed maple back, sides and neck, ebony offset bridge and fingerboard. Originally born without a pickguard, we made a stylistically matching piece to cover some wear around the iconic D’Aquisto oval sound hole.
