1965 silvertone 1478
Year: 1965
Brand: silvertone
Model: 1478
Class: guitar
Owner: Jeff Hewitt
Status: in the process of being repaired.
This one has been refinished badly in brown, so it needs a full strip and refinish and a refret. The 1965 1478 was available in two colors, a red burst and all red. This one was originally the common red burst, but I decided to go all red. I would have done the rare blue color but that wasn't introduced until 1967. So red it is!
Finally had time to strip and sand the body, grain seal and fill. Even got the first coats of red laid and color sanded before the cold weather set in.
Got the fret work on the neck all knocked out, a couple of cracks in the head stock, and its about ready for paint.
2023-11-01: Prepped the body, red base coat, refretted the neck, repaired headstock crack, base red on neck, west sanding, ordered white silvertone headstock decal.
