| This is unusual, the serial number is an E and three digits in black ink, but there is no reference for that. So, is this a 1967 model or a 1973 with a typo?..It doesn't appear to be new enough for a '73 model. Doesn't the winged bridge and square label indicate this is a very early original Legend? |

| ..the photos of the bridge and surrounding top show this Legend to be in exceptional condition. This may very likely be restored to near mint with a simple cleaning.. |

Location: Phoenix AZ | It's a 1971, or maybe late 70. That's when they came out with the winged bridge and model number 1117 designation. There were E- F- and M- serial numbers. It's probably X braced which means it should sound pretty darn nice. |
