It's finished. It sounds absolutely beautiful.
Pickups are rewound by GUN guitars and placed back
Pickguard is repaired
Completely rewired with new wiring (it was replaced with the thin japanese stuff in the 80's)
New nut
and the mute is put back, which is causing the high E to mute :fp:

WOW! Great story, great guitar!

Cool thing you keep the refinish as it adds a lot to the guitar!

Just the right kind/amount of restoration for this guitar- hope you get to show it to the previous owner and give him a play on it!

Looks really cool. Where did you get the rewiring done? Guest somewhere in the Netherlands right?
