is that a pat pend. tailpiece? that makes this a very early '62. probably a slab board.
if that finish is original, that really is a damn shame.

That guitar could be restored to be a nice player without too much work. The paint looks good. I'd bet the black could come off the headstock.

at first i thought it was another 65 that somone modified and painted pink, but knowing it was og shell pink with gold hardware is a truly sad story.

that just makes it worse. why would you leave this guitar like this? much less tout it as some kind of 'rare custom guitar'.

I mean, it is a rare custom guitar... that's been completely fucked over.

Is the guitar really tiny, or is that a tremolo plate for a giant's guitar?
