This just plopped in from Canada over the weekend; picked it up with the Gotoh 510 bridge for $178 Canadian on eBay.... I made most of the scratches on the back with my fingernail in disbelief; the guy that sold it thought it had a "nitro" finish, but believe it or not it appears as if someone used some Minwax type stains to color, and used GLO-COAT for a top finish.... :toothy12: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
(Here's a link to a vintage ad if you're too young to remember Glo-Coat: http://www.wagglepop.com/bin/auction/view?cmd=view&listingID=382842 )
Should be able to get it down to bare wood in about an hour, now to study on how to finish it, any suggestions? Will order a Warmoth headed mahogany neck with some fretboard, maybe rosewood or pau ferro....
