--------
The Neck
The neck has an early style "hippy" peghead, a fancy
5th peg cut
and a lovely "outline" carving on the heel.
--------
The Pot
A typical F&C laminated pot with rosewood inside
and out.
The brackets are attached with screws through the wall.
The tonering is a perforated hollow brass ring placed so that it is
just a little wider than the pot and a little higher than the inner
wall.
The bridge and tailpiece are replacements as are 4 of the ivory pegs and the ivory nut.
