Crockett JC1 Archtop
Condition is excellent, some marks around neck where the guitar had been on a hanger, some light signs of use, no wear on the frets.
Comes with hardcase.
Andy Crockett and Jon Case built their first guitar in 1964.
Their partnership over the years has led to their ultimate triumph, the JC1 archtop.
With the unique, elegant design by Jon, an innovative and sought-after designer, and the development and construction by Andy, a professional guitar builder since 1975, this guitar is a stunning must-have masterpiece for all serious guitar lovers and enthusiasts. The JC1 was conceived and built in the D'Angelico tradition but with a contemporary edge.
