Hey guys,
Picked this up from my local salvos (thrift store, op shop, etc).  Obvioiusly old.  But what is it?  And is that pick up supposed to be on it?  There is some cracking on the bridge which I will probably get fixed and checked over for any other issues, but I think for $75 (aud) it was a good buy!  Looks like early 1970's.  Anyone have any idea?  Model number is 6730E, made in Japan.  Google doesn't show much oddly enough.

On more digging, amazingly these guitars might not be worth much.  i cant believe it, 70's Japanese...but there you go!  I swear that the salvos price checks things before they put them out for sale.  Anyway, probably worth more then $75, maybe $200.  Going to take it to the guitar service dude and see what he reckons if its worth any work or even worth doing up at all.  Worst case tidy it up a bit and flip it.
