Hi all, I'm new to the forum, just saying hi and wanted to ask the group a few questions about my recent find. I just picked up a Springy Sound which was only a few miles from me on CL. I have set it up and verified it is all original. My question is about the pickguards used on the ST55 in 1981. Mine has the maple neck with matching headstock color. It has an 11 hole 3 ply guard. Did the maple board guitars usually have the 8 hole, and because of the custom color or finish on the 55 include the 11 hole guard as part of the package even though the neck is maple. Thanks everyone. The body is all original stamped MR color code and has never been redrilled. I'll add a few pics when I figure out how to get them from my gallery. Any other info about this model guitar would be appreciated.
