Are all Ricks with numbers close to lennons accounted for?
They all must be 3 pickups with a Kaufman.

So, V81 was originally believed to have two knobs, but then factory fitted with four.
I'm pretty sure the second one is Hoover's.

"Here's an ultra rare natural honey finish solidtop model. The only natural alder finish solidtop 325 in original 2 control format. It was last known to be with a collector in the USA. It has a long combo jackplate - Serial No. V85 "
Nobody has pictures ok..a few quik questions..

Is it still in one piece ?
Still in a collection?
Are there any guesstimates as to it's value?

Thanks!
