Amazing how you brought it back. I figured you'd need a new neck from the first photos

It's been said, but I'll say it again: Good job. I thought you were going to reveal a couple of those lozenge-shaped inserts to reinforce the often seen head-neck break on these guitars. It is a very cool guitar. In the 70s, I was offered one of these (with the repaired headstock) and a practice amp for less than $500. I was scratching with the chickens at the time, so it went away. Oh well. Good to see these brought back every now and then.

I have to compliment you on the rehab here, especially the faceplate. The cracking and color on the logo is amazing, along with the subtle vertical lines on the black. I wouldn't know looking at this that it wasn't 100% original.
