Location: Caribou, ME | I'm in the middle of re-necking the shiny bowl 12 string and I will post pics soon. I have a lot going on inside the bowl so it will be a while.
I'm trying to narrow down the date of the neck. There was no serial number on the head block, just two holes for the hide glue(?) to ooze out. The bowl appeared to be two layers of fiberglass. It was sunburst, based on the remnants of top spruce, and confirmed by "1115-1" written in the truss rod adjustment rout. Not much to go on I'm afraid. I read that 1982 was the last year for the Pacemaker so that narrows it a lot.
Is there anything else I can look for? |
