This one arrived today, and despite the substitution of a Dimarzio humbucker for the singe Franz pickup, the guitar is a joy and delight to play. It’s been in threads before and Hans knew the number by memory! Original case. Appears to be a Vinny Roberts ‘57 special order with the single neck pickup.
It looks as if the Dimarzio is sitting loose in the cavity. I have a lovely HB1 neck pickup that I’m going to try for fit until I can find a Franz, but in the meantime , a wonderful guitar to pick up.. fast under the fingers so I won’t bother with a pick, and lovely resonance acoustically, good for late night… like now!
