Galanti Grand Prix Model 3002 Model Solid Body Electric Guitar (1965), made in Italy, serial # 751, transparent green lacquer finish, mahogany body and neck, rosewood fingerboard, original grey hard shell case.
 
Overall length is 40 1/4 in. (102.2 cm.), 12 3/4 in. (32.4 cm.) wide at lower bout, and 1 1/2 in. (3.8 cm.) in depth, measured at side of rim. Scale length is 24 3/4 in. (629 mm.). Width of nut is 1 5/8 in. (41 mm.).

Overall this is a truly superb all-original example of one of the best of the "Italian Invasion" guitars, in the coolest bright green finish! The Galanti Grand Prix is made of actual good grade solid mahogany, not cheap hardwoods swathed in plastic as many Italian twangers were.

This guitar is beautifully all original with light typical playwear, mostly small dings and scuffs to the body finish. It has the original hard case and strap (much rarer than the guitar) and the often missing trem arm all intact. With a bit of fret work done, this is at least as good a player as any '60s Italo-guitar out there, with a solid twangy sound and an always super sharp period look. Excellent + Condition.
