Never seen a early MIJ shaped like that. I think the body and pickguard has been modified and refinished.

Thanks pick. Kool guitar. I think he mentioned that a gamble was on the headstock. I will have to check with on that. I checked it out on drowning in guitars and the video was neat.

Thanks for the info. he said it was kind of Strat shaped so this is a start. The key is that it's from the 1960s. :-)
