VERY cool. Definitely dig the non-traditional hollow body color.

Does that style bridge need a wrapped 4th string?

 

[27sauce]

Awesome, looks like a 295. '57, '58?

There was an absolutely dead mint 52 on "Antiques Roadshow" last night.

You must mean "wrapped 3rd" since the 4th is always wrapped, and the answer for is yes - I always use a wrapped 3rd. Heaviest sets possible.

It's a 175 retrofitted with a 295 tailpiece, so split the difference and I came up with the designation "275".

Rings like a bell.
