How do I get the text in English? I don't see how it can be an ST60, I thought only the ST100 had gold hardware?

Neck is stamped 60 - rest of it looks like an ST100 - although, I thought that the sunburst finish 100's had a fairly prominent graining pattern in the wood.

So does my ST60. And if it's an ST60 neck, how come it has gold tuners? Or are we assuming they are later replacements?

The text says the likelihood that the parts were changed after is pretty low as all parts, including screws, are gold. It says it may have been a limited model or an original store model.

I guess it could have been the case that a 60 was shipped with gold parts, maybe an early custom order of some kind.
Looks to be in good condition starting at a typical price.

If I didn't already have my battered '80 st-60 I's be interested.
