I guess the headstock overlay on these Sovereigns is some kind plastic or celluloid glued to the headstock. I have read that they tend to Crack and flake off over time. Mine was completely missing. So I think the collector value wouldn't be much on this guitar even though the rest is in great shape. I just want to enjoy it. I deal with customers every day that are concerned about the "value" of their family pieces. In most cases with furniture there really is no great value unless it is a museum quality piece that has remained untouched for two hundred years. Was made by Paul Revere and owned by Daniel Boone. Otherwise fixing and preserving things is a good thing. I know my bolt on idea changes the original design but it seems like an improvement to me.
