Just got signed in to the Fender site. I would like to find a real expert on Fenders to tell me what the difference is in a custom acoustic that Leo made for my father in the early 60's. My father worked in a shop next to Leo on Missle Way in Fullerton in 1961. Since Leo made guitars, my father asked him to make an acoustic that had a very thin neck. My grandfather played guitar but had lost half his left thumb. My father wanted to give him a guitar but needed it to have a very thin neck so my grandfather could get his hand around it. My father watched Leo make this special gutair for a couple of months. It is a fender acoustic but has what looks like a strat neck on it. Some special bracing inside to keep the neck from bending under the string tension. Anyway, who is the right person to look at this gutair and tell us about what the differences are from a regular acoustic? Thanks, Anthony
