Well, I'm again an owner of an A 500, this time from the first year they were made, 1956. The guitar has been refinished sometime in the past, in a Gibson style, along with a Gibson type pickguard, and the original Kluson tuners have been replaced with gold Grover Imperials. Lou del Rosso of GuitarsnJazz in Summit, NJ who sold it to me put new Thomastik George Benson flat 12's on it. It has a Lollar pup with two stealth control wheels. Acoustically, even with flats on it is quite loud, and through my Rivera amp its sounds, well, amazing. Here's some pics. Wear a bib.
