It's a 1966. Pictures, please?

If you intend to sell it, this is the place. Hardly anyone here but good Guild members.

Hello Fred & John,

That would be a little later than 1966. Serial # DA-232 would make it an instrument from 1968.
Would love to see a photo!

Sincerely,

Of course you're right, Hans, I misread the table.

I will post a picture.

Use the "search" feature at the top right of the screen, type "post picture" or "photobucket" and hit <enter> - you'll find lots of helpful hints.

Cheers, and Happpy New Year,
John
