CAMPBELL AMERICAN TRANSITONE Super Rare & Clean! P90s Bigsby Tremolo Gold Hardware t1106
Description
This is a very rare bird--a Cambell American Transitone in transparent orange finish. These guitars came with a variety of feature sets. This one has Seymour Duncan Phat Cat P90 pickups, Sperzel locking tuners, all gold hardware, and a Bigsby tremolo. Controls are 3-way pickup switch, mini kill switch and Volume/Tone. It features two atomic symbols for fret dot markers at the 12th fret. Here are some specs I've gathered doing research on the net:
-- Bolt-on Maple neck
-- Ebony Fingerboard
-- 22 medium-jumbo frets
-- Soft “C” low profile 12" radius neck
-- Honduran Mahogany body
-- Nitro Cellulose Lacquer Finish
-- 25 1/2″ scale length
-- 22 medium-jumbo frets
-- Soft “C” low profile 12" radius neck
-- Honduran Mahogany body
-- Nitro Cellulose Lacquer Finish
-- 25 1/2″ scale length
The guitar plays like a dream. Frets are in A+ condition. Probably was not played much at all. Cosmetically it would be mint except for two marks on either side of the neck where it hung on guitar wall hanger. The P90s on this are big, fat, and snarling. Very high output though they are single coils. Grab this rare beauty while you can! Cambell American is no longer making guitars and these are only going to go up in value. Fresh setup and thorough cleaning just done. (Details on my setups and packing at bottom of listing.) Weight is 7 pounds, 4 ounces. No case. Thanks for looking.

Guitar Setup
All our setups are done by our in-house trained luthier. Setup includes new strings (9s or 10s depending on what the nut is cut for), overall polish, cleaning any gunk off fingerboard, oiling neck, and polishing frets when necessary. We spray out any pots that are noisy, turn the truss rod (if necessary) and set string height at low-to-medium action depending on string buzz present. Since setup is highly subjective you may need to get it set to your particular needs by your personal luthier. Basses get the same treatment minus the string change. Thanks!
Packing
I use quality boxes, thick bubble wrap, and peanuts to pack guitars. I have a very high rate of successful guitar and bass shipping (meaning few damaged instruments). I have been doing this 10 years and know how to pack well--with or without a hard case. I wrote a detailed story with photos on how I pack a guitar, which you can find on my StillKickinMusic site blog. If you Google "THERE IN ONE PIECE...How to Pack a Guitar" you will find it. Thanks.
