[quote name='Happy Jack' post='503514' date='Jun 2 2009, 08:35 AM']Very enjoyable thread, and it seems a shame to spoil it by asking a serious question, but is that a 1-piece back?

The photos are very clear but I can't make out a join down the centre. If it's a 1-piece back then it's most unusual to see that with 'Blade' pickups; as far as I remember (without digging through my reference books) the 1-piece back was used briefly in the late 50's and then again for 1964 only.[/quote]
What a strange question. not confectionary related whatsoever.

Oh, and if anyone is interested I have a for sale. I am looking for about £650 or swap for a Star Bar and a Terrys Chocolate Orange. Untapped and wrapped.
I can deliver anywhere in the Milky Way.

I've just taken a look, it's a two piece back. Each piece is about the size of one square of Cadbury's Dairy Mil.
