~tl Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 It really depends, since there are two CIJ '57 reissue models. The first has Japanese pickups and a basswood body and the second (more expensive) model has US pickups and an alder body. The easiest way to tell the difference is the bridge saddles. The cheaper model has a bridge that looks like this: [attachment=15939:0040798000_xl.jpg] While the more expensive one has one that's like this: [attachment=15940:0990804100_xl.jpg] Hope that helps!
