Pretty good Walter! There's always that chance that somebody added a Bigsby at a later date but in this case ............ we can be pretty sure what really happened!
Here's a partial scan from the Friday Sept. 29, 1961 page of the ledgers from 'final assembly:
If that's of interest to any of you at all, take a look at some of the other guitars they did on that day!

Hans,
This ledger scan you gave us here is fantastic...thanks! How about at the bottom where is lists X 350 SFII as 17190. Why are the two listed together under one serial number?
