Slow but sure. Taking my time getting this little killer back to original.
Nice big fairly chunky neck. T-tops.
Need a lightweight TP.

Nice and fairly rare too. :dude:
I personally have never played early 70s Standard, but owned and played dozens of Customs.

That's a lovely looking LP/ I've owned a '74 small script standard for 37 years and I've never seen a small script Standard truss rod cover for sale anywhere. Funny things.

Plenty of the later large script ones around, though.

Thanks guys!! I`m waiting on a chrome neck cover now. Maybe a little saddle work.
This thing will be up and romping!
Still wish I could find a lightweight chrome TP for sale/trade:peace2

Nice lookin' logo; Not nearly as demented-looking as a lot of others.

Congrats! :salude

Super cool guitar! Must be rare as heck. Great color too.

I've never even heard of a '73 Standard, let alone seen one. I thought '76 marked the "official" (ie: Standard decal on rear of headstock) return of the Standard. You learn something new every day.
