Description: This vintage Norma "Barney Kessel" model hollow body electric guitar is all original, with the exception of the volume and tone knobs. Made in the late 1960's in Japan, this guitar is quite unique.It features 4 split pickups and a pickup selector that allow you to choose pickups 1 & 2, pickups 3 & 4, pickups 1 & 4, pickups 2 & 3, all on, or all off. I love weird guitars and I really love 60’s and 70’sJapanese Made weird Guitars and this qualifies! Split coils, the rotary selector is now a toggle and everything is in fine working order complete with nutty cool hollow body sound. There’s some finish worn off of the neck but this is an old school awesome cheap guitar all the way. Comes the way you see it with what you see.
