Hi I just purchased a 52 which has a bunch of parts missing.it has been converted for humbuckers.
I am the 4th owner of this guitar the first owner included all the paperwork concerning the neck so i know that that is correct i also had it checked out by a burst expert here in the uk.
parts list that require to be replaced
pickup rings
either a set of paf pickups(depending on price) or a good replacement
pickup rings
switch ring
bridge and tailpiece
control knobs
The pots, caps,switch and jack are all correct but i would need to clean the solder joints as they are really poor
most of the work was done by the second owner, why do they botch a vintage guitar.
the gold finish was removed and a sunburst was applied which i think may have been done by gibson when the neck was replaced.
