FS: Chapin T-Bird (MONSTER T Style Guitar) - $2200 shipped!

[CameronScott]

Price reduced to $2,200 shipped CONUS. This is a great price for a guitar built by one of the premier luthiers.

Chapin T-Bird, Fiesta Red. This guitar was Bill's personal guitar. It is in very good used condition. Bill's guitars sell new for $3400 and up, so this is a great opportunity to own one of the best guitars available built by one master luthier for 1/3 off new.

This guitar is an absolute tone monster. The biggest grittiest sounding T style you will ever play. This guitar will cover everything from LP style to T style to Gretsch tones. Jimmy Page fans will love this guitar as it easily gets his tones from both the early Zeppelin albums where he is using a T style through his later LP days. The neck on Bill's guitars are justifiably famous. The back of the neck is bare wood treated to result in zero drag. I would describe it as a "C" carve, medium, 1-11/16" wide at the nut. It is a very comfortable neck.
