New Top, New Carved Bridge, New Bowl, Upgraded Electronics, and a Swwwwweeet fret job and setup. Oh yeah ... I also had them replace the standard white saddle with a black one. WELL worth every dime ... Before: Ebay Photo After: pic1 | ||

The bowl gets re-painted and looks new, but it could be the old bowl, particularly with the old truss rod necks. What model number is on the label? 1719? | ||

The original electronics were replaced also, and the bowl is new inside and out. The sound is absolutely phenominal and the action is as smooth as butter. | ||
