That's possibly the biggest fuck off about it. I'm inclined to say the neck could be newer too, but I didn't look too closely.

Bet the guitar and neck are original except for paint job. Looks to be early 70's.

From the seller of this quirky collection:

"My grandfather bought all of these guitars and parts. He had a large collection of vintage guitars and accessories. He passed away and I am working to sell these for my grandmother."
