Isn’t that ok if the speaker gets installed from inside the cabinet? That way you can staple grill cloth right over the baffle board, slap some snakesking Torlex on it and bob’s your uncle

I replaced all the rusty-looking screws with shiny new ones, around the pickguard and the pickups. The neck is pretty nice, but the frets have seen better days. The electronics sound clean and all the knobs and switches work as expected. Considering what I paid for this, I think putting some work into new frets still gets this thing still under value for the cost. It sounds cool as hell, even if it's a little rattly and the strings that were on them look as old as the guitar itself.

(I always hated the cases. I'm debating getting a new case for it.)

I still think the T60/40 series bridges are among the best bridges from any guitar of the era.
