When I looked at the seller's pictures I thought it was OTM. When I saw it in person, I still thought it was. But when I looked under the hood to check everything was fine, it turned out to be LPB.

That color just ages so nicely

Yeah - LPB. You can see on the headstock where some of the clear has worn off (or it hasn't yellowed) that there's a little bit of blue left.

I love when they go like this.

Nah. They were still cheap for years after that.

That is a thing of beauty. The aging on that is like a fine wine! I am sure you are pleasing the sonic gods with it.

Dream guitar.

Two years ago an acquaintance of mine was over at my apartment and saw I had an AVRI jag hanging on the wall. He mentioned how he had his dad's original '66 in LPB. Told me he'd sell it to me for $1500.

Of course he changed his mind... Don't know if I could have bought it from him for that much with a clear conscience, anyway.
