- Modifications
Previous owner had spray-painted over the smoke green top with black gloss.
I sanded off the black and refinished the top with Testors model-master auto-lacquer and clear-coat (diamond green is a good match).
The sides and back were left original.
The Bridge is a funny looking bridge with little "monopoly house" looking individual adjustable saddles for each string. Not sure of the brand. All the other hardware on the guitar is original.
- Unusual factory features
The fretboard is unusually flat. I don't know if someone sanded it down and refretted it but there is barely any radius.
Great playing guitar.
