There have been a few upgrades, all professionally installed, specifically:
TV Jones Classic Plus pickups for Dual high-sensitivity Filter'Tronâ„¢ adjustable humbucking pickups
Sperzel tuners for original Gretsch deluxe high gear chrome-plated Grover V98C Sta-Tite Die-cast Tuners
Compton compensated copper bridge
Oh, yeah, and it has a Vibromate Spoiler, which makes restringing a 30 second proposition in the heat of the moment.
This is a very unique FMIC-era Gretsch in great shape. For those that are fans of the sound post, this is the holy grail: FMIC supervised, soundpost, with three-ply top. It is in excellent condition.
