Possibly Ken, but I think it was a 4 piece body from the factory. The horn was sanded down and the body also levelled to match the opposite horn at the neck. The fretboard has some seperation at the joint there where the body meets it.
Funny, but I came across something the other week that could have been it's twin...

I think the Smith book also says 1970 was the first year it became a standard feature on a 4001.
