Location: Minden, Nebraska | The bridge design is indeed unusual. I can believe there were only five made.... But what throws me is the model number being 1768, which is simply a deep bowl cutaway Elite with no special appointments. |

Location: Scotland | It may be a custom order, my custom Folkore has several unusual features but has the current "ordinary" Folklore model number on the label |

Location: SoCal | These guitars were made for the overseas market. They've got a ton of abalone on them, but rosewood fingerboards. I've seen them pop up at times in music stores and on ebay, but never with a bridge like this one. |

Location: Minden, Nebraska | I have seen the N (Nakao) series Elites made for the Japanese market, but they are identified as such by the model number. This is simply an odd guitar.
Well, I think I have said that enough times.... |
