Looks GREAT!
Now, take it off, put it in a bag, and put the bag in the case.

The nut was in hand authenticated by “The Music Zoo” as vintage.
The Switch Ring, while not historic, and not authenticated as vintage
is probably a reproduction. Ultra thin, and *I think* well done. I’m
happy with it.

'55 on the HM...



the nut is off a '60 harness,which is also on the HM and the ring is a DMC(earlier font version) I got from DJ a few years back.The '60 harness also came with the black '60 poker chip,which will go on my TV,the ES/Jr./Special switch as well as the pointers and nuts and output jack.


Sorry to hijack the thread.
