Tommy, that is just like mine; but mine has been refinished.

I made a pick guard for each neck from some clear adhesive backed Mylar. From five feet away one cannot tell it. It really protects the wood body from the metal finger picks.

Too bad these were not cut-away along the fret board like the Stringmasters.

One of the cleanest Dual Pros I've ever seen. Did you get that slipping tuner fixed?

The tuning key for the 8th string on the back neck has not been fixed yet. that's why there are no strings on that neck in the photos. I know where to send the pan out for repair, but I need to save up some cash first. I spent everything I had saved up just to buy the guitar. And yes, that is the original finish, it's unbelievebly clean. thanks for all the complements. Tommy

If you have access to a 200-watt soldiering iron, you can probably do the repairs yourself.

Well,, I just don't have the confidence or the tools, not to mention the know-how, to try it myself. I would rather trust someone who's done this before. Thanks anyway Tommy..
