Going a decade past my comfort zone. Thinking of dipping my toe in the 60s. Here goes.
I played a 64 Special a while back and loved it. It was out of my price range though. A 64 Junior came up the similar neck / nut. Its all orig except for the truss cover. It has the Viola term on it. At first i thought it was a 65 but he says its a 64 and the Control cavity looks smaller that the 65s I've seen.
Everything seems in check and theres hardly any checking. Very good shape.
Any hidden issues I'm missing? Thinking that i don t know my hard core tricks on old P90 ID'ing. I can date pots, blacklight, etc..
I play on going out to see it soon. This one is my entry into that true Vintage Gibson world and Im just being cautious as the price seems fair.
