Just arrived a 1958 Wandre BB Model Semi-Hollow Body Electric Guitar!! https://retrofret.com/products/wandre-bb-model-semi-hollow-body-electric-guitar-1959-13974 Made in Italy.
According to the Marco Ballestri’s “WANDRE-The Artist Of The Electric Guitar” The Model BB traces its origin to about 1957, conceived as a more “feminine” design then the angular extreme-cutaway “Rock Oval”. This more conventionally shaped guitar was unsurprisingly more successful and evolved versions stayed in production into the early 1960s. Based on the features this one would date to around 1959-60, with the earlier Davoli pickup installation but before the controls were moved to the body from the pickguard.
