Bassassin Posted February 12, 2008 Posted February 12, 2008 Hi - any chance of clearer pictures, particularly the headstock? There were several different Antoria 335s, not all of them MIJ, should be possible to ID yours from clearer pics. Jon.

These guitars will have a quite plain, triangular headstock end, usually black-face with a small script logo. I really can't tell with yours - although it doesn't look like the first type, it could be either of the others. Obviously its date & country of manufacture will make a difference to its collectability. J.
