Anyone interested in this project? I'm not - the client passed away, and left me holding the bag so to speak. The only parts that are missing are the original frets - he had me pull them to refret it, and reset the neck. Then he croaked. Original hard case, too. I have every screw and tiny part, and the pickup glued to the bottom of the cone even works.

It's a Duolian model. The pickup glued to the bottom of the cone is an antique. Before I pulled it apart it worked. I need to sell this for the client's widow.... Not sure I can recoup enough to play my bills on it. There is damage on the peghead, and I'd say other hands have been inside it besides mine. I found 2 kinds of glue in it. I'm not even sure how much of it is original internally. Might be more valuable as parts.Last edited by ICTGoober; 03-15-2021, 08:23 PM.aka Chris Pile, formerly of Six String Fever
