I'm
attaching some pix of 721 the one I had customized. I bought it off a guy in
London for only £250 as his description said it had been repaired. When I checked
it out his "repair" was where someone had stuck a sticky label onto bare wood
on the back of the Verithin and the residue of glue from the sticker picked
up a load of dirt and muck in a perfect square shape to make it look as though
a repair had been carried out. Overall it was in very bad condition from a visual
perspective with bare wood showing everywhere. I believe in originality but
this was silly!! I could have had it resprayed red but it would have looked
too new. So I stripped the body, neck and headstock, had new frets fitted along
with the lateral pearloid and mother of pearl markers, fitted gold plated Gotoh
tuners and had the original Hofner tailpiece, bridge, pickups and control faces
gold plated. A specialist guitar painting company in Kent called Sims sprayed
the body, neck and headstock to my spec. and the finished product is simply
stunning. Not original but stunning nevertheless.
