Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledzeffer Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Probably custom ordered. What does the label on the inside say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalismanRich Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Is there binding on the headstock and an extra inlay? That would indicate that you have a 555, which is the upgraded version of the 535. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millennium Maestro Posted October 18, 2023 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Its not about the features this model had in a particular year, As a dealer I ordered several 535s built with block inlays on the neck, usually with bound and inlayed headstocks because I believed they looked classier and not too expensive as an upgrade. The original builder golden era was truly a boutique builder corporation, ask and they would build!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brentrocks Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 This is a 2017. Originally ordered by Eddie’s Guitars. I bought it from Eddie’s in 3 pieces, after UPS broke it. I fixed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
