Body: Maple back and sides. Has the Master Model lable

Hardware: Gold-plated metal parts including wrap-over tailpiece. Short bound pickguard

Notes: The truss rod cavity has been enlarged – presumably to allow the use of a larger wrench. There are a number of cracks in the binding, a six-inch length of which may have been replaced. The bridge is a reproduction from Cumberland Music fitted by Mark Tossman and the tuners and truss rod cover have been replaced. At some point the neck may have been reset and the fingerboard re-fretted. The pickguard shows a small area of discolouration (see pictures below). Has original hardshell case
