Beauty!

So, what are the differences in this and a V64?

In short....everything.

cross braced body construction
different style fireglo pattern
smaller headstock (correct for '63)
correct TRC shape
smaller neck girth
slightly different body shape (I think...)
scatterwound 7.5k toasters instead of hi output toasters

Though they look similar, there are actually very fews characteristics between the two models, apart from they're both double bound 12ers..........and yes, I totally want one (not enough to pay for one though!). 8)

There's also a discussion of some of the differences on this thread:

Beautiful! Congrats Ron!

Someone had mentioned on another thread that they were using the new inlay material on the new batch of C63s, but those sure look like the old poured inlays to me.... :?
