Anyone ever seen a Musicmaster with a top veneer ?

Probably the original body or at least a correct one - fender used to glue together all the ugliest offcuts to make musicmasters, I've seen alder musicmaster bodies where the alder on one pieces range from the usual pale colour to much darker pieces with a massive variation of grain pattern. Not sure if this is the result of a stain or other process - perhaps the outside plank in each batch was treated with something - I don't know. This is probably why early musicmasters always had a solid colour - of course this one was so fugly when stripped, the veneer was added where a nice coat of paint would have looked much better.
