FOUND THIS GUITAR AT A FLEA MARKET BRIDGE WAS SPLIT AND IT WAS WITH
AN OLD GUILD GUITAR THE GUY WANTED 80.00 FOR THE PAIR I SENT THE
PENCO TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND FOR 80.00 THEY PUT A NEW BRIDGE ON
AND STRINGS AND SET IT UP.ACTION IS NOT THE BEST BUT SOUND IS
AMAZING I DONT KNOW WHY THE GUITAR IS PLYWOOD I HAVE OTHER PENCOS
THAT ARE SOLID TOPS WITH ROSEWOOD BODYS AND THEY DONT SOUND HALF
AS GOOD. THE GUILD I GOT WITH THE PENCO WAS A NEAR MINT 1963 J 20
WITH A GREAT SOUND SOLID TOP AND SIDES AND THE PLYWOOD PENCO SOUNDS
BETTER ANY ONE WHO KNOWS WHY A PLYWOOD GUITAR WOULD SOUND BETTER
THAN MY SOLID TOPS PLEASE EMAIL WITH EXPLANATION IM AT A LOSS
