hey all, thought that this could be the place to show some combo love. just picked this up from the shop. special thanks to Bob Shade for the help with nos parts

enjoy.

Very nice!

thanks, Sarah. I am still a little star struck by it! so much fun to play.

Nice combo you got there, but whats the story with the line on the headstock?

thank you. i am not so sure about the line on the headstock....the guitar definitely did not come to me that nice, a little bit of a rescue beyond my abilities. i wonder if someone scalped the headstock before coming to their senses? i hate to think too much about it. (btw-thanks for the pointers on using dropbox, picure!)

I've seen several Celebrities with that line across the headstock. I recall someone telling me that for a while the headstock were cut at different lengths depending on if it was a 12 string, a bass, a 6 string, etc. and then the glued the piece onto the end. It's strong but leaves a line in the finish many years later. If anyone knows of a different story, please share.

Sarah, you are an amazing source of Mosrite information!
