I'm 14 and just saved all of my money for one just like these at guitar center. They told me it was a 78 but at that point they had quit the made In usa stamp and the pots say 74 so there you go. The original owner must have played the life out of it because the frets are flat as a pancake and the red has faded to walnut almost identical to a 70s standard. Plus there is no lacquer past the 3rd fret so if it had a satin neck a rhythm guitarist played it and did enough chords and such to shine up the finish or if it was a gloss neck someone played it like johnny winter lol. It needs a regret but otherwise it's perfect. Only better guitar I've ever played was an all original 62 sg les Paul standard. Anyway I'm never getting rid of this guitar. I'm gonna try to add a pic
