If it the "My Favorite Martian" version than it is late Fifties; if it is the "Courtship of Eddy's Father" version, than it would be Sixties.

The "Hulk" models from the late 70's and early 80's made everyone green with envy.

I had a 1949 Bigsby volume/tone pedal that went back to Paul twice for pot replacements over a period of several years. Each time he worked on it he wrote the date and what had been done inside the pedal on the inside surface of the bottom plate. Take the bottom plate off and check the inside; perhaps he wrote a note in the pedal.

I sold mine a couple of years ago for $610.00. Pretty good profit on a $45.00 item.
