Doesn't the 'OS' in the pickup cavity mean 'Old Sunburst'?

This one had a refinish on the top when the switch holes were filled.
The gent selling it said it was done at the Tokai factory, but I sure don't believe it was.
It also has Dimarzio Super Distortions instead of P.A.F.'s.
I think everything else is correct with it and it has the original case too.
 
haha yeah didn't want to say but that is not an original tokai finish at all for that period! looks killer though, congrats
 
Yes, this one had a few issues, but thanks to all the great help and info here I had a good idea what I was looking at. All in all a dang nice piece of wood and a real winner in my opinion.

After a jam or two I'll know if I can get along with the Super Distortions.
If not I have an old patent sticker humbucker or a pair of Gisbon tarbacks out of a '71 SG I might try in it.
 
Anybody figured out a good way to re-glue the covering on a peeling vintage case?
Any ideas of best glue and method appreciated.

Depends on how much peeling you're dealing with. For corners or seams, I just us Lock Tite brand superglue - the gel, not the watery version.
