    Materials: Solid hand-carved flame maple back, sides and neck; solid hand-carved spruce top; solid ebony fingerboard,
    solid mother-of-pearl inlays, solid bone nut.

    Hardware: All original gold hardware includes twin Wolfetone Legend humbucking pickups, Schaller 16x1 tuners with
    ebony keys, stop tailpiece, Tuneomatic bridge, 3 way pickup selector switch; black 60's style Gibson reflector cap knobs.

    Notes: Tired of typical plywood thinlines? Then pick a few sweet notes on the Schaefer Casanova. Introduced in 1958, the
    Gibson ES-335 debuted the thinline body, with an inner block for sustain and reduced feedback, and the new humbucking
    pickups for quiet operation, high output, and sweet, fat tone. The 335 became an instant classic, mass-produced in the
    thousands to this day with inexpensive, durable plywood bodies.

    Texas luthier Ed Schaefer's archtop guitars were meticulously constructed entirely by hand, and rarely seen on the vintage
    market. His Casanova blends the premium hand-carved solid spruce soundboard and highly flamed maple body of his top-
    line jazz boxes to the comfortable thinline body of the classic ES-335. The body and neck are well balanced, the instrument
    sits comfortably on the lap or the shoulder, and the amber blonde finish shows the intensely figured tiger flame maple body
    to great advantage.

    The neck has a gentle "D" profile, remarkably sleek and fast, and
    the original frets are the classic medium-jumbos, famously easy to
    play. The Wolfetone Legend pickups produce a smooth, high
    output signal with lots of snap and sustain. The instrument is
    without pick, buckle, thumb or fingerboard wear, and apart from
    some scattered wisps of checking in the ultra-thin nitro lacquer
    finish, appears all but unplayed.

    The instrument is supplied with an original bound ebony


    pickguard and bracket as well, which was not installed when
    originally shipped. With a fast, elegant neck, and smooth, bluesy
    tone, this handbuilt marvel blends 335 comfort with L-5 quality
    construction. One only: call now.

    Setup: Trussrod tension and neck relief adjusted; bridge height


    adjusted; bridge compensation set; bridge wheels and tuners
    lubricated; fingerboard and bridge oiled; body and neck cleaned
    and hand polished.

    Case: Original tweed premium Cedar Creed plush lined arched


    hardshell case.
