Looks like a bargain to me

Now I look again, is this the real deal? The outer fins looks too wide, at least compared to reissue ones. Is this the way they were in the late 60's ?

That was for sale the other week. Looks legit to me.

Finding the bridge and saddles to fit it is the hard bit...

I bid on it the first time around - before all bids were cancelled. I was in for $60. Ebay?!

Sold for $50!

I got one a couple of weeks ago with the mute pretty cheap on the Bay also in a Buy It Now auction. I think some with careful Dremmel work, these can be modified to take a modern bridge.
