One thing about his description puzzled me and ties into the lack of the headstock pic. He said that the year 1959 was inked into the serial number.
That is specifically what was done with the Korean limited edition series that were sold by Mikes Music a couple of years ago - those that had the MM2001 on the truss rod cover. If I'm not mistaken, there were two '59 models ( cherry sunburst and violin finishes) and a 56 Goldtop with P90's.
