Sodomized by whores? That's not much of a hazing....
The finish on ol' #376 is a tragedy. Apparently the Beatlemania touring guys would paint it with rollers every few shows to keep it white. So there are quite a few layers of paint covering the usual scrapes and gouges from load-in/load-out. It'll take some doing. It's also footless, which is frustrating. But it does play pretty well, though it'll better when I give it the standard tuneup. Even in it's current state, it's far more encouraging than my old EMI. At least the keys are straight.
Somebody send this poor man some feet!
