I knew you would, Rob....it fits your goal of an "everyday" V63 without worrying about a cymbol dropping on it and "ruining" the finish...lol!

Rob was a pleasure to deal with....and I got to handle his '72 , also! Always exciting to hold and inspect vintage Rickage...

Thanks again, Rob...

Thanks to you, Chris!

I'm going to see if Sergio will rewind the bridge pickup for me... there's definitely a short inside since it measures about 500 ohms.

I'm going to level and recrown the frets tonight, but I think I'll have to refret it soon, if not now...
