This 1964 National Westwood 75 absolutely oozes character with its distinctively shaped maple chambered body in red burst finish, faded over the years to more of a classic sunburst with a tinge of red. Westwood 75s feature a piezo-style internal bridge pickup that offers a tonal flexibility not commonly found in '60s electrics, making this guitar just as unique sonically as it is visually. With the exception of the black-white-black nut and the included hard shell case, this one is all original.
Freshly inspected and set up in-house by our esteemed Guitar Tech. In Very Good Vintage condition with moderate wear for an instrument of this age, including scratches, significant fading of finish, loss of finish, edgewear, and other signs of normal aging and use. See below for more details and specifications.

NOTE TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:
We want you to be happy with your purchase and we try to represent the condition of all used and vintage guitars as accurately as possible in our listings. Every used guitar shows some signs of play wear and vintage models even more so. We call out all areas of damage or unusual wear, and describe the overall condition based upon what is "normal" for the age of the instrument. Expect to see minor dings, finish checking, or other evidence of normal use and aging which may not be captured by photography or explicitly mentioned in the listing.
We recognize that everyone has their own personal standard of what constitutes acceptable wear and tear. If play wear is especially critical for you, please contact us to ask any questions you may have. Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us.
