C. 1920's Stella 12-String
Circa 1920's Stella grand concert 12 string guitar. Solid birch back and sides with spruce top. This guitar is known as the Barbecue Bob model. These were used by many prominent blues and jazz musicians in the 20s and 30s. Lonnie Johnson is pictured with one of these playing duets with Eddie Lang. Neck reset and a few top cracks repaired. Plays perfectly and is setup with heavy strings tuned to C#. The extra long 26 5/8" scale length make it ideal for lower tunings. This guitar has a fingerboard width at the nut of 2.05", thickness at the first fret of 1.00", thickness at the tenth fret of 1.18", and weighs 3.48 lbs exactly. Includes newer hard case.
