(95.9 cm.), 15 3\/8 in. (39.1 cm.) width, and 3 in. (7.6 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 25 in. (635 mm.). Width of nut is 1 15\/16 in. (49 mm.). This rare Weissenborn has had a long journey from new and is fairly well worn overall, with a very old clear overfinish over most of the instrument that does not detract from its honey amber glow. Recently rebuilt and the top re-braced, rescued from life as a ornament (most of the old top bracing was gone!) and re-born as a truly wonderful sounding Hawaiian guitar. There is one long (repaired long ago) top crack along the upper bout, with a smaller one above, no other cracks to the notoriously unstable Koa. The tuners are 1950's Waverly's, the bridge is original (there was a tailpiece installed at some point, the holes in the rim now patched). Remarkably deep, resonant sound�not a collector's piece, perhaps, but a lovely instrument with much to offer the acoustic steel player. Very Good + Condition.","brand":"Weissenborn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46852961796236,"sku":"5735","price":2800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/8702\/3756\/files\/01_7dadedb4-cd6e-4e98-a662-cc1d979ddac8.jpg?v=1774328796","url":"https:\/\/retrofret.com\/products\/weissenborn-style-1-teardrop-hawaiian-acoustic-guitar-1930-5735","provider":"RetroFret","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
