Fake. Even if it were argued that the original tailpiece was replaced, the bolt-on neck is another glaring clue.

Dolly's are real, Tony. But that's an Asian replica if ever there was one.

In my dreams Paul. There was an article on her in one of the British papers a while ago. She was a LOT smaller in her younger days!

Now is that a fake TRC too? I've never seen one age quite like that, but usually on fakes they put something there that spells something like "Rickenbacker" but a little different. This one is mint green, and methinks it is an outright forgery! The Nerve!!!
