This instrument features an internal piezo transducer pickup for using with an amplifier, producing a nice loud signal and a great tone. And the sound hole in the top provides a very enjoyable acoustic tone as well.

This instrument retains the sort of minor surface irregularities that give these instruments their unique character. It doesn't look or feel like it came from a factory. It's more like something you might have found in an antique store, discovered in an attic, or been given by an elderly family member.

This electric slide guitar comes with a glass slide and 3 picks. It measures apx. 28" X 5" X 2" with a 21.25" string scale (from nut to bridge).
