Lets Play, 'What's in the Stinky Case?'

Talking to one of my Contractors this afternoon. "Here," he says, "You like this smelly old shit. You want to have a play with it?"

Um...Yes Please :D

So let's have some fun. Guess what it is. Some clues:
1: I haven't just found a missing 59.
2: Only just missed by a year or two though.
3. Apparently these were found in the hands of many of the young future greats from UK.

Right. I'm off to fettle it. Apparently, last time the case was opened, Internet was being caught between two fishing trawlers.

looks like a fat acoustic case, but I'm guessing a jazz box of some sort. Maybe a fat jazz box from 1961.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Nice cab.

My wee blast after work was a bit 'boomy'. Would it be less if I closed the back?

You always seem to bump in interesting guitar things... Do you always wear a T shirt printed with "Wanted, stinky guitars"?

No. I'm just a shameless geek.
