Picked one up last month at a flea market for $30 w/period SSC - cleaned up nicely (there was some pretty curly maple buried under six decades of crud), Kelvinator pickup sounds great, sweet neck (very much like an early-60's Gibson Slim-Taper) but needs a bridge and a good setup job as well as some incidental parts (pickup ring, truss rod cover); makes a nice rhythm box, and my wife's been looking for something smaller/lighter than my Gretsch E-Matic and Godin CW II, so it seems this one's got a bright future ahead...
