Fstop	Old Norma Solidbody Guitar		Lead	[-]
Deepest Blue Posts: 36 Jun 16 12 9:50 PM	Tags : None My son needs to pay some bills so he has to let go of one of his cool guitars. It's a Norma solidbody with 3 pickups. Looks like a Teisco for sure. The bridge has been lost (mounting studs are there, the bridge slides onto them). There are no strings. Should be an easy project. I have one of these with one pickup and I love it for slide. The body is pretty light, easy on old guys! I'm gonna try to load a pic of it. If that fails, it can be seen on Ebay, item# 221047712187. Auction starts at 149.99, or make me an offer here. Thanks!! Fstop

Mine is from the early 1960s probably. -------------------- Click here to view the attachment Les from Chicago "Nobody sits on a rolling stone". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMRWhmqJwHc

Then sometimes the silence reappears right in the middle of something. So it is not reliable for public perfromance. maybe it just needs to be dismantled and cleaned and re assembled I don't know. So for electric I usually use an acoustic with a pickup and the Norma gets a lot of rest. Good li=uck with your sale.
