I'm really having a tough time accepting that the Isle Of Wight LP was "stripped" at that time. There's too much natural, as well as, "player" wear and aging going on, on the top. Not to mention the rusty/reddish/brown happening on the side of the headstock and body. I saw a "60 out at Lark St. once. Looked a LOT like it (minus the figure of course). The upper and lower bass side bouts were BLEACHED to a very light tan color. :hmm
Good point! I somehow doubt Koss "aged" it in any other way than thru use. :hmm Perhaps he got it that way and was done much earlier or was perhaps a special order from Kalamazoo? :hmm
