This one gets more rare by the day!
Very hard to find, very lightly used, well cared for and in full working order Italia Mondial Classic Electric Guitar. Not only a unique beauty but also unique in its tone and playability! It has both Electric and Acoustic Pickup systems that can be plugged in and used at the same time through different amps. I could go on and on all day about this guitar but I'll let the manufacturer description do all the work here.
$1350.00 or Best Reasonable Offer. There is no case included with this guitar. I will NOT ship the guitar but will gladly meet to exchange or deliver within a 10 to 15 minute drive of my location. No low ballers, serious inquiries only.
From the Manufacturer...
The Mondial Classic hits at the very core of what the Italia product line is about. Inspired by some of the cool fiberglass top designs coming out of the 50’s & 60’s, the Mondial Classic features a ‘Res-O-Glass’ top and mahogany back, complete with the rubber-bound edges found on those classic period pieces.
The most unique feature for the Mondial Classic is that it houses two completely independent pickup systems, all the way down to separate output jacks for each system. The first system is a standard neck and bridge configuration with 2 Wilkinson WVC Humbuckers, a 3-way selector switch, and master volume and tone controls. The second system is an ‘under the bridge’ piezo ‘acoustic’ style pickup that's integrated into the wooden bridge, has a 2 band EQ Tone control, and independent volume control.
These two separate systems give a wide range of tonal control and diversification that's not found on most guitars. You can run the two pickup system into 2 separate amps, and blend the sounds to create a full, rich ‘doubling’ sound combination with two fully different tones. The piezo has great acoustic sound characteristics, and with the two band EQ controls, you can really fine-tune that sound that your wanting out of the piezo. Combine that sweet clean sound from the piezo with a slightly dirty, edgy sound from the humbuckers and you’ll be blown away. If you’re playing a song or a set that doesn’t need the blend of two systems, just plug in to the humbucker jack and rock it like you normally do, or for an acoustic sound, plug it into the piezo and rock that solo. Its totally up to you.
