Cool story. I’ll be watching for new episodes. I was under the impression that the ‘58 ES-335s all had unbound fingerboards. Maybe this was a late ‘58 transitional build? Maybe I was misinformed?

At the the start in '58 when they first came to be they were unbound by the end of that year they were bound.

What an information-packed, enthralling 3/4 of an hour, spent well and wisely.

Major open-PAF surgery.

And that Unwinding/Winding montage is killer!
