You know, the stains and such in the pocket might tie into another question I have with this guitar...
It almost appears as if the assembly of the guitar took place before the finish was cured. Under the pickguard, both back plates, input jack, and neck plate there are marks in the finish that mirror the black textured finish on the metal parts, or under the pick guard and input jack, show that the finish had been compressed while still soft. Hopefully some of these photos I took will illustrate them better than I can describe them. Currently I have the strings off as it needs re-setup to go from 12G strings down to something like 10G, also for oiling the rosewood.
The last couple shots which show the area around the trem cavity show the finish issue. That isn't white on the finish that's the sun reflecting off the gnarled imprint from the black cover. Those markings are under each of the black textured plates, and similar ones are under the pickguard and input jack as well....
But other than that, no it's original in every way. There are gold-ish flecks in the red paint but I'm not sure if any of these shots capture that or not. It's clear in sunlight, but my phone camera might not be up to the task.
Also, I agree, it does look as if 1992 is the year it was built... 1992 is the first year for the Legacy, correct? I was told by the G&L rep when he delivered this and the others the store I bought it from got that these were the first run of a new guitar... Not that it's important, but just wanted to verify first year of Legacy production to be 1992.
