OMI Dobro D60S Squareneck, Made in 1977 Purchased new in 1977 at a musical instrument store in Ochanomizu. The signature inside the body indicates a completion date of 12-1-76, but according to overseas information, a serial number ending in 6 suggests the year 1977 (shipping year?). I previously damaged the finish due to carelessness, and after much deliberation, I stripped off all the paint and repainted it. The body and neck are finished with orange water-based stain and nitrocellulose lacquer (sprayed over 15 times). The headstock surface and body binding are white pearl celluloid. The fingerboard was dyed black with hair dye, and the position markers are abalone shell. The metal parts were sanded, coated with Mitzukuron, and then painted with high-durability lacquer. The logo mark peeled off with the paint, so I ordered a replica. The resonator cone has been replaced with a US-made one. The tuning pegs were also broken previously, so I replaced them with generic ones. Therefore, when set upwards, the winding direction is reversed (clockwise). A portion of the soundwell inside the body has been cut out, but I don't think there are any structural problems.
