Build Year – 1977, Day - 285
Plant/Product number (of that day): Kalamazoo/132
Bought in 1978 at the old Giannini Music Center store on Irving Park Rd. in Chicago.
Prototype: Bare wood around where the Tailpiece Stud Inserts holes were drilled are visible, so I covered them wilt red felt. The store informed me about that before I bought it.
Modifications: I replaced the Stopbar tail piece with a TP-6 for precise tuning. Also replaced the strap buttons with the Schaller Strap Lock system.
