Interesting history/inspection of a historic telecaster (Mike Bloomfield's)

This came in an email from StewMac recently and the story behind this guitar is interesting (also how it had been modified). It is the telecaster Mike Bloomfield played when he and Bob Dylan were booed off the stage at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival. The video is an inspection for authenticity, but he leads it off with a neat story behind it all.

    Thanks for that : Nice to see that I'm not the only goof to hack on an old guitar. Couple of good lessons there too.
