a very special gift

my dear friend built this from a kit in 1975 and inlaid the headstock and painted the resonator and the head ... 11" frosted plastic head, cast metal 1-piece rim and tone ring, 24 hooks and nuts with individual flange pieces, mahogany resonator with tortoise plastic binding, and mahogany neck with 22-fret rosewood fingerboard ... kind of a mellow little thing
