Sound Pure's Take
One of the most renowned players in history, the legend of Chet Atkins lives on in his signature Tennessee Rose model guitar. And speaking to the versatility of this legendary model, some of the lead lines of the biggest hits of the British Invasion started out on this model.
This particular used guitar sports your typical wear from a well-loved but not abused guitar. Notable blemishes are on the back of the headstock (pictured) and corrosion on the pickups. However the playability is astounding with plenty of room on the fretboard to pick out a good Jerry's Breakdown or, rolling back the tone knob a little, flow through your version of Autumn Leaves. Don't miss out on this phenomenal deal!
