The serial number is "00114507" which dates it to 1976. The pots date to February 1976 (137-7605). The pickups also have the patent number etched into the backs and a "Williamsville" stamp that was only used in the mid-70's.

The body is very clean and in excellent condition overall. There are some small dings, scratches and light streaks but nothing out of the ordinary for a vintage guitar. No cracks, modifications or structural issues.

The neck is straight and the frets show only light wear. It was re-fretted at some point with larger frets. It's in excellent playing condition and has no major issues. The fretboard is clean and the back of the neck has no major dings or gouges. The headstock has small nicks around the edges but no cracks, repairs or extra holes. The nut is 1.66" wide, the neck measures 0.84" thick at the 1st fret and 1.00" thick at the 12th fret.

The hardware and electronics are original and in excellent working condition. The pickups measure 7.62 Ω (Bridge) and 7.56 Ω (Neck). The bridge is sagging down a bit in the middle but is not causing any major problems right now. I will ship with a new bridge in case you want to swap it out. It comes in the original case which is very clean and has no major wear. All of the latches, hinges and handle are in excellent working order and the interior has no bad odors.

Actual weight for the guitar is 10 lbs 1 oz.

Please note that I do not set up my guitars before mailing. I have played it and everything is great as far as I'm concerned, but you may need to change the strings, adjust the action or do other maintenance to get it to your preferences.

I list some of my items on both eBay and Reverb. In the event that this item sells on both marketplaces before I can take the other listing down, I will honor the first sale and refund the second. There will be no exceptions to this!


SHIPPING

$150.00 for UPS Ground. This is only an estimate on the high-end and will probably be less if you are close to the West Coast. I will refund any overcharge if there is any left over beyond the postage and packaging costs. I mail all of my guitars inside guitar boxes and pad with biodegradable peanuts. Local pickup and payment in cash are available, so feel free to contact me if you're local and want to check it out.

TRADES

I am a dealer and am not looking for any more gear for myself. I may not be able to offer much credit on a trade since I'm buying to re-sell. With that said, I will only consider in-person trades due to shipping costs and taxes. Please do not contact me for a trade unless we can meet in person.

OFFERS

I price my guitars as low as possible and don't consider offers, so please do not ask for a lower price!
