As for my 480, it's not completely flat, but seems darn close. It throws some of my guitar buddies off when they first play it, but I love it.

That's part of the 481's specification, so it's unlikely that there were any made without slanted frets.

Being adicted to the 4003/4001 body style makes me want your beautiful 481, even if I can't play it. Thanks for the photo.

Come on, you can play it, it only has two more strings on it. :)
