Charity shop score 20 bucks has to be 1950's antoria hollowbody guitar is going to make a great Grestch like Rockabilly project.
Im thinking flat top mount pickups and I could mount the electrics in a pickguard to keep the alterations to a minimum.
Added the GFS Trem that was lying around here 3 screws to the rear and no top fixing need.

That's so cool!

Truss rod!!!!

Cutaway!!!


Score!!!!


I have a solid top/sides Antoria which to this day blows my mind. Congrats

SO nice! Congratulations.

Wow, what a score. It looks fantastic, I'm jealous!

I had a friend from jazz school who had one. Lovely guitar.

My dad actually has one that he got from his sister when he was a kid. I'd love to try restore it, but I'm pretty sure it's beyond that.

That looks super cool!

Actually.

Want to double your money?

I've had no experience with them, but would one of those peizo bridges be cool on this guitar?

HAHAHA tell him his dreaming Son.

I have one of the schatten piezos on my 50s hofner, it's not that great a tone IMO and having the little cable running from the bridge to the f hole is maow. I'd leave it acoustic or go for a floating humbucker

What a find!

Antoria? Been there got the T-shirt:

awesome man. love the check binding. trem looks great. nice job.
I remember finding an amazing old 12 string dreadnaught for $25 when I was at uni in dunedin.
nothing beats a great op shop find.
