I'll take a guess that the finish is original but the bridge not. You could purchase a period bridge for from some...
Good question. I have an interest as I am the original owner of a 1984 Flatiron. My instrument has no issues.
I believe that at a minimum you will be required to prove with documentation that you...
Wow, like me, most of you guys have been at this a while,. I don't feel too out of place.
