I gave it a good clean and polish as well as new strings. The strings on it were at least 10 years old. My Mom helped me get this back in 83. It has been in my possession for the 40 years since. It is STILL a really sweet axe. Many moons ago I put a Duncan Distortion in the bridge and added coil cut in place of the phase switch. It has some small dings but is in excellent shape considering its age. I'll be taking this one to the grave.

She's a beauty alright!
Really like the Cardinal line even though I don't have one.
