Members catalinagooseV2 Posted September 24, 2008 Members Share Posted September 24, 2008 It looks like a '68. Maybe a refinished gold top that was routed for humbuckers at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members IuseSG Posted September 24, 2008 Author Members Share Posted September 24, 2008 I have seen another old ass LP that had mini buckers on it and it was OOOOOLLLLDDDD, but damn that guitar was sexy as hell, I ran the GDP on it and it was made in Kalamazoo, MI....
