Modifications

Gotoh Tuners and a Tune-O-Matic Bridge...Completely re-wired at some point in time...and the Pickguard is broken...soon to be retrofitted with Grover StaTites and a Bar Bridge and a whole Pickguard.

Was sold as a 1967...about 1995...was told that it had been rewired because the original harness with the plug ins had been removed...but things just didn't add up...So this December more research was done...and the serial number was finally found...embossed on the top side of the Headstock.
