Classic.

First one I think I’ve seen without finish on the fretboard.

Congrats! I'm guessing I know what four of the knobs do (2 vol, 2 tone) but what is the fifth one for?

It's a blend knob. Blends the amount of neck and bridge pickup. It's still kind of a mystery though.

It's primarily to blend in just the right amount of "mojo" for your current musical or social situation. Who doesn't need more mojo?

Really loving this guitar. Jamming on REM, Smithereens, Beatles. Yes THAT kind of tone!

Honestly the tone is what is knocking me out most. Just perfect.
