One thing I have noticed in looking at pictures of other Marlens / Speedy West is that this one has handles on each end of the guitar. This would seem unusual? It is a model 210.

Chuck did a great job on the underside. Redid the placement of the levers,(2), to the right knee for the E and F and make it an easier play because of pedal placement. As far a pictures, underside c ...
