Checked out your site... loved it!!! tried to Email you from there but it was a no go...I'll trot this out again. If one '74 is good, surely two are twice as good:
Now the juicy details: Mine on the left is dead stock with the wine color you see in the pics above. My bandmate's on the right has no pickguard, the bridge PU has no cover, the Klusons were replaced with Grovers, the reflector knobs were replaced with speed knobs, and the color is the classic dark tobacco sunburst. Interestingly, mine has nylon saddles, his had metal. I was running through a 1965 Gibson GA55RVT Ranger 4x10" (The Kalamazoo Super Reverb). I jumpered it and it was sweet. Pedal board had an EH LPB-2 boost, volume pedal, and an EH Small Stone. I added an Echoplex soon after. My buddy has a '65 Fender Super. We're playing a dual lead here. Pic is from '78. Apologies for the repost but soulbrojcs might enjoy. And...
Live shot with me playing the tough in a '50s band. That is the only shot of the guitar's headstock that reveals the small script. Check out the bass bi-amp rig behind me: a Fender PS300 for the lows with three 1x18" cabs and an Ampeg SVT-VR for the highs with a 4x12" cab. Yummm! I was running through the same Gibson Ranger as above with a '65 Princeton Reverb on top as a backup.
