Vintage Silvertone 1457 Amp-In-Case Electric Guitar Made in USA in GILBERTON, Queensland for sale
The 1457 made in USA guitar was, in its relatively short lifetime, a very popular guitar. What’s not to like about the 1457? Comes with the full array of Nathan Daniel features: two 'lipstick' pickups, the elegant Danelectro-designed bridge, concentric stacked knobs, p/u selector switch, neck tilt adjustment, that cool red sparkle burst paint job, and a great feel and balance to a very lightweight guitar. The 1457 guitar setup epitomized the Silvertone mindset: the best that just a little money could buy. A great neck, a cool look, and a sound that artists continue to find irresistible. Mick Jagger, Beck and Jack White of White Stripes are just a few of the pros who use Silvertone amp-in case guitars on stage regularly. Killer vintage tone is delivered through the lipstick pickups – strong output. If you’ve not heard one of these growl when distorted or chime when clean you are in for a real treat. Sounds absolutely awesome! The light weight and low action makes it fun to play.
This particular guitar and case is in great shape. The guitar is all original and fully functional. It has a straight, slim neck that plays great all the way up and down with a low, tight action. The tape/side binding on this one is in great nick, clean and not frayed. A few bumps and bruises but seriously – she’s in amazing vintage condition. The case has some scrapes but has lasted very well over the years. Has an upgraded / sturdier handle. Comes with the original guitar lead. The sound from these little amps is truly vintage. The amp will need a step down transformer. I have my own Silvertone 1457 amp-in-case too. I hope that the day never comes when I have to sell it! This is your chance to own an awesome piece of American music history. Just plug and play.
This would suit someone who is into collecting vintage, made in America guitars with the iconic Silvertone 1457 amp-in-case electric guitar being a must have. Ideal for someone who looking for something that looks and sounds a bit different with a great vintage tone that will set them apart from the crowd.
