The finished project on the Silvertone *encouraged me to repair an old Dana guitar from the 60s.
I found this guitar in the street, 15 years ago (?) Where cars were probably passed over. There are very visible marks.
As I had the expertise and the tools already released for the Silvertone, I now tackle this guitar.
More pictures later

Great project. The output jack in the pickguard is a design flaw waiting to break. I would consider either moving the jack to the guitar body, or reinforcing the pickguard underneath with a large metal or plastic plate to spread out the stress.

I'll do about the same as my post on Sivertone guitar . Piece of junk metal for this one.
It is a very cheap guitar. I' m afraid to ear the sound..........
It is done now.
Metal jack plate, new budget bridge ( original bridge was missing )new 250k pots ( old one are reading 400k an broken) and new knobs.
