Hi.
I believe not but….. sheesh I’m wrong about a lot of things.
My 62 has one but I’m sure it’s not original but it works well so don’t be put off if one has one.

I believe it could be ordered as a "Special" with a Bigsby tailpiece. Hans would know for sure.

Cool.
Is there any way to tell if it’s a special order or one that’s been modified?

Well, the label would show. Since Carter calls her a "Special" there is a likelihood it is showing "Spec" on the label.
