I am looking at an early 1960’s Artist Award and it has a “stinger” on the back of the headstock. It is not painted but rather an overlay like on the face of the headstock. The serial number is imprinted into this overlay. I have not seen this on any other Guild from this era. Is this original? If so, when did Guild do this style overlay on the back of the headstock? This could be covered in Hans’ book but I don’t have mine handy at this time. Thanks!
