Epiphone Electar Model C Model Hollow Body Electric Guitar (1937), made in New York City, serial # 1228, sunburst top, dark back and sides finish, laminated maple body, mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard, original black hard shell case. - (Link in profile). - This Epiphone Electar Spanish Model C is one of the world's first generation of commercial electric guitars, introduced in 1937 as the direct successor to the Model M, Epiphone's initial electric Spanish model. The major difference is the model C replaced the earlier Rickenbacker-style horseshoe magnet pickup with the first version of Epiphone's round-coil internal magnet unit. This earliest pickup lacks the adjustable poles Epiphone's Herb Sunshine developed soon after, but uses the same basic form. This guitar has tone and volume controls with octagonal radio knobs and a cool slightly recessed jack on the top - - - - - #epiphoneelectarmodelc #vintageepiphone #vintageepiphoneelectricguitar #madeinnewyorkcity #earlyelectricguitar #the1930s #guitarlover #vintageguitarlove (at Retrofret Vintage Guitars) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpiY944u64L/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
