Mint ST55

[ATO]

Spotted on a Tokai FB group - time warp mid 80s ST55. Still got the original strings!

That is absolutely nuts.

I can’t tell from the pics. Is the headstock metallic green too?

 

[Sigmania]

Or is it TG???

Almost seems like I can see through the finish on the back. I see the center seam.

 

[ATO]

It's definitely Metallic Green so not a TG candidate. As you say the seam is visible though!

Edit..I think that line is reflection from the ceiling.

Further edit.. actually I think it is the seam.

 

[ATO]

It's certainly a beauty.

 

[Sigmania]

Absolutely nuts. MG are rare in the first place. I’ve never seen a matching headstock version.

And I think I’ve only seen one MG Goldstar? A lefty.

Metallic Green Gallery

Surprised to see it marked as a 55.

Enhanced pic of headstock to bring shadows forward.

Wow that's a rare bird! I have a springy and a silver star in MG both with maple necks. Sure would love to have that one!!

 

[Sigmania]

I have never seen a Silver Star in MG either. Wow.
