Bought this about 12 years ago. I am finally going to learn to play it!!! I don't think it's a Sho Bud??

| It has some early Baldwin era Sho~Bud looking features. Do you have a picture of the bottom.... finish does not look stock. |

Right, Mike. The changer looks something like the 'Bud LDG/Baldwin changer, but the aluminum stub isn't there. Fretboard is definitely 'Bud, but its been shortened a couple of frets. Keyhead is 'Bud, but I've never seen that type of binding on a 'Bud. Pickup, can't tell (most everyone used one that looked like that three decades ago). End plates look to be 'Bud, also.
Dunno. It's probably more 'Bud than anything else, but it still just doesn't look right, if you know what I mean. |
