Sat, 08 Jan 2011 11:58:23 +0000 http://chrishaskett.com/?p=51#comment-60 I have a very similiar guitar. Same body but finished in a gorgous three tone sunburst and with a bad tremelo. Also has a burled maple back, this is what caught my eye in the first place. I am planning on putting a stop-tail type bridge on it, possibly a bigsby if it would not need any drilling or other modification to the face of the instrument. I know the originality will be diminished but it really doesn't make sense to have a tremelo on an artop. If you care I could send some photos. You may also be interested in the Harmony Meteor, I bought this from the same source as the Hofner and they are quite similiar, possible made by the same company. I have a very similiar guitar.
