My '53 X400

[Darryl Hattenhauer]

That seems familiar. But I'm getting so old that at first I couldn't remember things that happened, and now I'm remembering things that didn't happen.

Does it have an ethereal psycho-bluesy neck pup?

Darryle,
When I got the guitar it seemed like it hadn't been played in a long time....As I recall (fuzzy memory as well).
The neck pup was real mushy sounding when I got it. I had my guitar guy clip the resistor to brighten it up. Now it sounds nice and fat/raw sounding without the mush. It needed a nut a refret and a fingerboard shave due to a slight warp. That was in '96.
It plays like butter
