Modified with two 70s Gibson T-top humbuckers and a Tuneomatic bridge and stripped back to natural from Fireglo.
Formerly owned by Deniz Tek of Radio Birdman, who acquired it in the mid 70s from Ben Miller of Detroit band "Destroy All Monsters". It was used on "Radios Appear", including on the solos for "Hit Them Again" and "Anglo Girl Desire". It has a repaired neck break - the break was caused when Ron Asheton (The Stooges) dropped it during a New Race performance in 1981. Repairs by Piers Crocker.
