Default Price Drop #2...Peerless Monarch 17" Archtop.. Maple...Dual Source..$850.

I have to sell my Peerless Monarch 17" Sunburst Archtop guitar in excellent condition with factory HSC. It carries the Armstrong floating neck humbucker which is standard. I am also including the K&K Acoustic slim pickup for archtops which adds an acoustic tone to the guitar if wanted. If not, its as easy as removing it from under the bridge. No tools, no muss, no fuss. That pickup has a 1/4" input to make this guitar a dual source guitar. Run the Armstrong humbucker output to one amp and the acoustic pickup to another for a full tone with acoustic and humbucker at the same time or one or the other. You choose. Sounds full and clear with the acoustic tone added to the jazz tone for a great combo.
This guitar is not modified or altered in any way. I bought it new and just have not used it much. Its in excellent condition and ready to enjoy. Solid woods create a tone that is full, clear and warm. Great for jazz, folk, rock or pop. No feedback issues. There is one very tiny, size of a pin head, divit about 1/32" deep on the lower bout face. Its not noticeable unless looking for it. Some common very light surface swirls from light use.
The sound is old jazz, clear but mellow and sonorous; the sound of solid flamed maple back and maple sides plus beautiful sunburst spruce top finely crafted and a big floating Armstrong pickup plus a sound-post from the factory that dampens the top just enough to make the Monarch guitar feedback resistant.
Comes with a high end beautiful hard shell case embossed with Peerless.

The fretboard is a dream starting at 1.69 at the nut and increasing gradually to 2 1/16 at the 12th fret.”

Bump for a pro grade archtop in nearly mint shape. Very nice for an acoustic guitarist as an alternative look, feel and tone as compared to flat tops.

Mid week bump for this jazz box. What, nobody likes the good old tone of an all wood hollow body jazz guitar pregnant with tone.

Quik bump. This is an outstanding archtop for a very comfortable price. This one stands above Eastmans and other archtops. Check it out. Try it out.
