They just got this one in. The paint job appears vintage, quite possibly original. You can see wear marks where the original black Bakelite shows through on the photos.

Just played this today, very nice sounding Ricky. Pre-war (1.5") pickup and strings through the body. Paint appears to be original, very cool!

Original or not, that's a decent price for a bakelite. Never heard or seen one like that, but I sure like how it looks !

The "T" logo on the head stock is not pre-war, (late 40s) so the big magnets make it somewhat of a curosity. Go for it !!
