NGD 74 Anniversary

Finally found the one I've been looking for. I had one years ago and traded it for a 80's Standard. All in all pretty good shape. Knobs ,tuners and pick guard are only non original parts. I'll find some and replace them. She is only 10lbs so not too bad.

The ugly white pick guard, poker chip and knobs have got to go. Then she'll be styling.

Got her in and yes she has binding that has really yellowed with age. Plays unreal. Very low and fast.
