Hi Louie! Whatever it is, congrats on the acquisition.

As both Robin and BWL have noted, there are some issues here that don't add up. I liked all of Robin June's questions and there are a few more that might help too. Matter of fact, ANYTHING more would be helpful.

Do you have a feel for it's age?
What wood is the body? The top?
Can you describe the peghead?
What fret is it where the neck joins the body?

Now don't take offense here ***GRIN*** and you know you're my hero (and katlaughing's as well) but I'm about 60 and you got a few years on me.........and I have a damned hard time reading some of those numbers without a billion candlepower and a magnifier!!! Be absolutely sure of the numbers if you can. I know you are but do us a triple check huh?

I'm looking forward to figuring out what you have and maybe hearing it sometime soon too.
