Large headstock, no volute, one-piece mahogany body with maple top and a one-piece mahogany neck with long tenon — still to late-’68 spec, before the later ’69 changes (pancake body, volute, three-piece neck). Serial number 541869 (no “Made in USA” stamp), with CTS pots dated week 52 of 1968.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"400\" data-end=\"678\"\u003eThe original P-90s read 7.6k (neck) and 7.92k (bridge) — a strong, balanced set with an open, woody response. Weight is 4.15 kg, which is light for a ’69. The guitar was refretted in 2025 due to worn original frets (included in the case); clean work and excellent playability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"680\" data-end=\"1073\"\u003eThere were small hairline cracks at the headstock (near the truss rod cover) and at the neck tenon, professionally repaired in the past — fully stable and invisible. The back of the neck received a light clear overspray as part of that repair, nicely aged. The original goldtop finish on the top and the clear coat on the back and sides remain untouched.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1075\" data-end=\"1248\"\u003eElectronics are otherwise original, including the two Sprague Black Beauty capacitors.
