Hello there.
Just found this great site as of yesterday,I came across this great find and was trying to get some history on these guitars.. I call her "Sandy". Dont know much detail on the model other than the guy whom I bought it from ($250)Canadian told me it was from 1972, based on the serial number. Has some great history behind it, purchased from a great liitle beach town called Sandbanks..hence the name "Sandy". Looks pretty close to the Gibson ES 335, and has a great little extra feature called a Varitone Chicken Head switch control, its an extra 5-way switch, besides the usual tone/volume controls.Not sure if its original or not?? Information on Model would definetley help!!! She is in outstanding condition.
