Does this Explorer look right?

Client wants to know if this is a real '76 or a '76 RI.

Whatcha think? Thanks.

Real '76. Whoever that was on Ebay who said it was a reissue is full o' shit and don't know their ass from a hole in the ground. That guitar's got more provenience than most to prove it's an original.

Thanks guys. I was pretty sure but didn't want to steer a client wrong. I'm better with '50s and '60s guitars.
