Product Description
A great old guitar that has seen a lot of use. Here is our observations:
- Original bridge, screws look original
- Re-fretted with bigger frets
- Fingerboard appears re-radiused to approximately 9.5 inch radius
- Neck says "TG March 1956" which is Tadeo Gomez
- Middle pick up is different, likely replaced
- The bottom of the bridge pick up has been routed down
- Overspray and buffing (green hue could be from the overspray)
- Bottom pot is 304065 i.e. the fifth week of 1956, which matches the date of the body and neck. The other two pots are likely replaced. Another pot has two codes: R1379335 (which is 1993) and 013446 (these are the same CTS pots from the 90's)
- Neck and bridge pick ups are re-wound
- Tuners appear to be original single line tuners
- Pickguard and pickup covers are original
- Looks like a one-piece body (which people seem to like) vs the 2 and 3-piece bodies
- The back looks good
