Hi Seth,

Beautiful coco bolo top on that Tribute- It looks to be a 'standard' Tribute. You can find the details of Tribute guitars at the link below. How's it sound? :-)

Toby is correct, pretty standard Tribute, but of course, unique unto itself! Here's what was in the file:

top: Carved Coco Bolo
accent: Maple pinstripe, Vermilion laminate
body: Flame Maple
back: Coco Bolo
neck: Flame Maple, Purpleheart, Cherry
scale: 25.5" long
fingerboard: Ebony
inlays: mother of pearl ovals
side markers: aluminum dots
originally made for: not recorded
birthday: May 13, 2003

This probably has an earlier version of the electronics where they pickup selectors are additive - meaning the volume increases when you add another pickup, like a mixing console. The current version doesn't change volume when you add or subtract pickups in the mix (unless they are all "off" of course!).

Very pretty guitar!
