FEATURES
Introduced at Frankfurt in 1953 and produced through to 1968 in both acoustic and electric versions. It has been replaced by the Model 471 which appeared in 1969.
The main differences between the UK distributed Committee and the European/US market 468 are: the Committee invariably had a birds-eye maple back and sides; the 468 never had the large “frondose” headstock; the inlays on the 468 are the “bell-flowers” for the headstock, and “bow-tie” on the fingerboard. The Committee has “rose” and “rose & leaf” inlays.
