Got the new strings on today (Sunday) and adjusted intonation and bridge saddles, slightly. Received new strings and the gig bag (Cordura "cover" really).

Pickguard has a slight bow/warp behind the p-up area, hoping this will straighten out but if not, it's not a big deal. Hardware looks like it should clean up nicely and be bright & shiny again. Vol/Tone controls both work, and input seems okay as well.įound the serial number, it's a 97! First year production?
