1965 Ruby Red Wurlitzer Wildcat

This incredibly awesome Wurlitzer Guitar was made in Neodesha Kansas in the late 1960's. In fact, this rare guitar has never left the state of Kansas in it's lifetime!

One small chip in body is shown in the pictures. Original travel case is included. Case does show damage in one corner. Case is as rare as the guitar.

I've played it for 30+ years and always liked the super smooth neck for the quick action it provides. Due to arthritis, I've played it maybe 5 times in the last few years. My loss is your gain!

1) Somebody would love to rock that thing.

2) That somebody is not me.

 

[BlockInlay]

would be interested in hearing what it sounds like. that MIGHT save it from the dumpster.

 

[sunvalleylaw]

I think it looks very cool. Would want to check it out.

With enough room to fit my porn stash in the case too!

and make sure you have a needle-nose pliers to change the strings.

 

[sleewell]

looks geeky in a good way but not for me.

 

[gtrjunior]

Horrendous in every way.

Not much of a porn stash...

I've seen worse looking guitars. If it sounds and plays good, for the right price I'd be interested in it, though if you want something a bit more unique/offbeat than this "sort of a Jazzmaster" GPOTD guitar, you might want to consider the Wurlitzer Gemini, which Eastwood also made a reissue of:

I like the "W" in the vibrato plate. If Wonder Woman played guitar, this would be the one.

 

[Dudeman1967]

ONLY if he can PROVE it never left the state of Kansas.

It's the best of the 60's weirdness that has been posted in a long time. I'd have to play it, but so far I don't hate it.

 

[grover]

Too oogly googly

 

[PunkKitty]

Yeah. I'd rock that.
