1959 Capri CA-100

This was my father's guitar, bought before I was born. I am no guitar expert (saxophone player... sorry. ). From what I've found, from the "ghost label" and the serial number, it's a 1959. I believe it's a Capri CA-100. Any experts out there confirm that? One pic before our local shop did some repairs.

WELCOME.
That is super! Keeping it in the family I hope. Appears to be in great shape and certainly worth bringing
back to best playability if not for sentimental reasons alone.
Thanks for sharing - I'd love to see it after you get it back so please post some pics.

Yes, a nice CA-100. That's a model I drool over! Your pick guard is not original and from afar it looks like the tuners might be replaced too. Here's a video of another that Chicago Music had for sale. They don't show the price that it sold for.
