Well I guess it will be OK to Post this hear. I have owned this Guitar since new. It's a 1978 510 made in the Lemon Grove shop before the lay off. It has seen many many things in it's life and travelled the world with me both high and low. I have been through over 50 guitars over the last 35 years and this one I have had the longest and will die with it is like my first true love (now I'm gettin corny but you know what I mean). Anyway here are a couple o pics.

Very nice. The rosette is even simpler than my '88 512.

Is the top color mostly from the laquer yellowing?

It has been touched since I got it. The color has changed due to the laquer yellowing. Here are a few more pics. The serial number was eraticated when I had the neck reset.
