    Of the 250 broadcasters sold only 500 have ever been found…

    Norm seems intent on making it more valuable than in probably is

    I love how both techs vacillate between suspect and non-committal while Norm is eternally hopeful

    Seems like an early "Partscaster"

    Broadcasters are the 427 Corvette of guitars, more exist now than when they were actually manufactured.

    It looks like the experts are skeptical but Norm keeps trying to talk them into it.

    I&quot;m in Australia and owned the guitar in the video and sold it here in the mid 2000s. It was in my possession for around 15 years and had been in Australia longer than that. It was without doubt the best sounding guitar I have ever owned. I never believed it to be a mint condition Broadcaster and accordingly paid a very reasonable price for it. I bought it fully understanding its questionable authenticity. The reason I bought it was because of the way it played and sounded and because it was affordable for me. I was lucky enough to be able to use it at gigs 3 to 4 nights a week during that time and in retrospect wished I had never sold it. Here is a video that was made after I sold it. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIBIvbA9c9M">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIBIvbA9c9M</a> 🙂

    Without any identifiable marks makes it hard to prove anything.

    I always hope an old guitar turns out to be “less-collectible” just so people keep playing it rather than it ending up on display behind glass and never getting played again.
