Just bought a 1937 May Bell F Hole Archtop in good shape.
Made in Chicago, but absolutely nothing much else to tell you. It plays better than a lot of vintage Gibsons or Kalamazoos. This one was on a rack in a store for 20 years.
It is absolutely perfect geometrically. Plays well all the way up the neck with all orginal everything including the case.
