Thanks guys. Tony can't grumble much about this one. It's not Jetglo. I guess they made a few of these back then with a satin or matte black finish...no fingerprints get left on the guitar. I just have to clean it my a bit to my liking. I guess I shouldn't use any Scratch-X, Nu Finish Scratch Doctor or Zymol on it.

That's a great guitar, Joey! I miss my former 430. Dust off your Keith Richard licks; they're going to sound great with this axe. 8)

Just like my non-S bass! I love that about it too. I wouldn't use all that fancy SwilrX/Zymol stuff either... just a rigourous use of the RIC cloth. Maybe a dab of water for any particulary stubborn funk that's caked on. If that doesn't cut it on the back of the neck, just play it for a while and let the oils from your hands soak in a bit, that will soften any gunk that's not water soluble. Then it should come off easier. Time is on your side, you have 11 months before you need to take calendar photos!!!! :)
