Never seen one of those before. That's one hell of a find!   Karl Gaulin (1rr3l3v4n7) Member Username: 1rr3l3v4n7 Post Number: 45 Registered: 02-2005 Posted From: 67.68.242.244 Posted on Friday, July 15, 2005 - 01:10 pm:    is the tail piece original?   Peter McCormack (Admin) Board Administrator Username: Admin Post Number: 4253 Registered: 04-2003 Posted From: 142.166.105.230 Posted on Friday, July 15, 2005 - 01:20 pm:    Karl: It looks to be the original tailpiece.   Robert Callaghan (Red_rob) Senior Member Username: Red_rob Post Number: 166 Registered: 02-2005 Posted From: 194.74.48.4 Posted on Friday, July 15, 2005 - 01:29 pm:    John Minutaglio's 330 only has 4 strings. I'd send that back with the warranty card if I were you John :-)   John Simmons (Leftybass) Senior Member Username: Leftybass Post Number: 1060 Registered: 04-2002 Posted From: 69.161.23.82 Posted on Friday, July 15, 2005 - 01:32 pm:    Yes, all the Banjolines had accent vibratos on them....mine is identical to Graham's except mine is Fireglo. One in the 1968 catalog appears to have gold hardware....wonder where that one is! Graham, is your Mapleglo 6006 the one that was on ebay recently?? If it is yours is only two numbers away from mine. Cool!!   Ronn Roberts (Iamthebassman) Senior Member Username: Iamthebassman Post Number: 928 Registered: 05-2002 Posted From: 207.193.146.2 Posted on Friday, July 15, 2005 - 02:14 pm:    A couple oddballs that unfortunately don't belong to me.   John Simmons (Leftybass) Senior Member Username: Leftybass Post Number: 1061 Registered: 04-2002 Posted From: 69.161.23.82 Posted on Friday, July 15, 2005 - 02:29 pm:    Cool. Here's one that belongs to me... Essentially a Banjoline with 8 strings, Custom ordered.   Andrew Winter (Wints) Senior Member Username: Wints Post Number: 1007 Registered: 05-2002 Posted From: 64.12.116.7 Posted on Friday, July 15, 2005 - 07:17 pm:    Sweeeeet. Checkered binding on a headstock just makes a guitar/bass look so classy. An option that I think we all would love to see return on certain models.   Dave Molter (Revolver323) Member Username: Revolver323 Post Number: 56 Registered: 07-2005 Posted From: 67.165.68.95 Posted on Friday, July 15, 2005 - 07:21 pm:    My 1972 4001 had checkered binding on the body, but not the headstock. Was checkered body binding common?
