I got this in trade. Always wanted to try one out. I love the upside down lefty look. The body has some stuff that I wanted to try to fix. I heard Dots wanted to flip it lefty so there were some holes drilled for a plate and strap button. There is/was also a large chip of paint in the contour area. I did some zpoxy filling and sanding. Doesn't look pretty, but it is getting back to smooth so I can do a fresh layer of black to get it looking more pristine.

Hard to see but there used to be four small drilled holes here.

Large chip I filled/sanded around.

Once I get paid again, I will pick up some 600 grit sandpaper to sand it for spraying and some black and clear paint. Should look great when I am done.

Yeah, it was yours. I didn't end up getting along with the balance of the guitar. I know it's in good hands now. _________________ J Mascis Jazzmaster | Baja Telecaster

I got her flipped back right handed and wired up before I sent it to HNB. _________________ J Mascis Jazzmaster | Baja Telecaster
