Heres Bad Brad Burns playing his mold top.

Brad cherrishes that guitar. Doubt he has changed a thing
since he has had it.
Some things I can note on these 69`s.
Serial numbers on the large headstock early ones tend to slant upwards to the right.
Every neck pickup pocket that I`ve seen has been altered with a chisel to fit the
grounded leadwire after painting. No 68`s have been.
Mold marks on the tailpiece.
