1957 Silvertone Archtop Acoustic, what do you all know?
Scored this today along with some Tele parts I picked up. The guy told me to just take it and that it was a 1957 model.
I dont know anything about these. It's in pretty good shape, considering the age. Neck is straight, the tuners need to be soaked in lubricant for a while. Looks like there used to be a pickguard on it at one time.
It sounds halfway decent and could probably shine up pretty well. Maybe I'll throw a neck pickup on it.
Anyone have any info on these? I'll get some pics later.
