Only minor restoration. Done for me by Ted Vig who is the awesomest guy I know.
Changed out the japanese repro tuners that were on it
to the rebuttoned originals

I love your duo, also I like how a guitar from the 50's has less wear than a new guitar...(yes I know it's relic'd but still I think it's a little funny.)

about time that thing is playable, that nut looked horific. I still can't get over the "relicing" on those roadworn's though, so aweful. Excellent guitars for $600, down right amazing in fact. Just looks ugly.
DUO IS SEX THOUGH KTNXBIE

Very clean - I love it!
I've got a RoadWorn Strat, and it is among my best sounding and playing guitars (I like it a lot more than my AVRI Strat).
nice
