I show you this new guitar at home
It may be not a Mat washburn
I also could have shown it in the "resto" thread

Guitar's top was opened on a few centimeters (4 or 5 cm), and varnish was split on 40 cm along biding.
Of course, I forgot to take pictures before restoration, so here your can see work in progress

And another one, trying to fix top and biding (but I also forgot to take picture, so I already sanded this part)

Looks like an interesting project Fabien.
I think you'll find that those screws were for the pick guard. :wink:

I really like that black with red binding.
And I'm with Barry on the screws.

Oops I filled holes screws :roll:
Thank you Barry and Jorg for this information. 8-)
Anyway I don't have pickguard!

Another problem is one of the bridge pickup coil doesn't work.
Pickup wires have been cut then twisted together without soldering.

I've never seen this kind of pickup switch. So I guess it is a Yamaki guitar???
