The "1759" is a 1995 version (sr# 498575) with natural finish. It sure can make some noise, with all those strings ringing!
I picked it up last year at a local pawn shop along with its hardshell case. It needs some work, especially where the top has split (came unglued?), exactly where the matched sides meet. Will be repairing it soon, and will be using the "Bottom Feeding Luthiery Guild" community posts for help on this project. Also will be ordering a new saddle for it from Dan Savage. )
Again, thanks for the welcome!
