Description: A very rare piece from Kim Walker. This is a 1996 Walker Excel Archtop. His top of the line archtop model with 18" body. If you know of Kim Walker, you know he is quite unparalleled luthier in the guitar world. This archtop is the only Left Handed Archtop he made. All the others made by him were right handed. It is just as incredible as his renowned flattop work. Check out his website to see what they cost if you can get one. He has pricing of his flat tops, and the archtops definitely cost more than them. Custom Tom Doyle floating pickup humbucker in neck position, floating pickguard, and all the features you expect from a top-model archtop are delivered here by the one and only Kim Walker. Curly Maple back and sides over 50 year old wood, Sitka Spruce top. It is in mint unplayed condition with custom aligator hardshell case. The closest listing I found was a right handed one with less ornamentation of which I am attaching link https://www.dreamguitars.com/shop/instruments/guitars/archtop-guitars/electric/2005-kim-walker-archtop-curly-maple-sitka-spruce-na/
