Paul is going to do a refinish on a 1968 335 in Autumnglo. I need some recommendations and good pictures of Autumnglo shades (This guitar been refinished once badly in black). The guitar originally had long pole pickups in the bridge position and flat surface mount pickups in the neck position. Someone added long pole pickups to the neck position and drilled 6 swallow holes (not through) to fit the long poles. I want to either plug the holes and use a flat mount pickup or route the holes to look like what Ric would have done at the time. Does anyone have a 1968 330/335 that they can post a picture of with the neck pickup removed? Any and all input will be most appreciated. |

David, a correct mid to late '60's Autumnglo can be seen here: http://homer.netmar.com/~muscon2/r338b.jpg |

Thanks John, that is very Pete Townsend. I had forgot that the late sixites Autumnglo was more of a blood red. Decisions: Historically correct or Capri fantasy?

You can't go wrong with any of them. |

Gosh, that bottom one is nice. But, then, I'm a sucker for new MB. The mid one on the top would be a very close second. I don't much care for the Rose Morris color. |
