72-73 would be my estimate.

I agree with Herb. It's interesting that it has the 'Texas Star' fretboard, which implies that the original owner had strong religeous convictions. Playing cards being Satan's tools.

Interesting fretboard indeed. If I recall, Sho~Bud did offer a black fretboard with white stars for those opposed to the Card symbols. This particular one, however, looks like the early JCH Fretboard; I may be wrong.
