Its striking natural blonde nitro cellulose finish has aged into a gorgeous amber tint with minimal checking or player wear. The top, back and sides all display well matched and highly figured maple. This two pickup variant of the ES 300 was only available from 1948 until 1952. Its unique configuration of 2 pickups and full, non cutaway body set it apart from the more common two-pickup cutaway archtop design and truly represent a snapshot in time for the innovation of the electric guitar. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-ccp-props='{\"201341983\":0,\"335551550\":0,\"335551620\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}' data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-ccp-props='{\"201341983\":0,\"335551550\":0,\"335551620\":0,\"335559739\":160,\"335559740\":259}' data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"auto\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis guitar has very minimal wear and classes as a collector grade piece.
