4Everdelayed Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 (edited) [color=#333333][font=Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif][size=3]Vintage early 70's Micro-Frets 'Spacetone' guitar. Made in Frederick, Maryland USA. Semi-hollow body with two white plexi-glass single coil pickups designed by Bill lawrence. Sounds like a cross between a Rickenbacker and a Fender Jaguar. 'Calibrato' vibrato and an intonatable roller nut both exclusive to Micro-frets guitars. Played by Carl Perkins and Martin Gore of depeche mode. Less than 4000 guitars were ever made. A few minor dings and a bit of 'worming' on the back, but overall in beautiful condition for it's age. I can't find one for sale as nice as this. Most are missing bits of the pickguard or the trem arm. Selling with non original hard case. Trades considered. Gretsch hollowbody or similar would be nice but let me know what you have as I may be interested. Can post for [b]£30[/b] within the UK. Check out Carl Perkins with a MicroFrets in the video at the bottom of page. Fast forward to 1.55 for good idea of what these guitars sound like.
