Melobar Rosac 8

This is a guitar that's been on the shelf half built and I decided to finish it.
It's one of the 1972 Rosac (former employees of Mosrite that went out on their own for a while) built Melobars - originally a 10 string with tight spacing I converted it to an 8-string, staggered two sets of Paul Barth pickups to widen the spacing. The front two pickups are wired together then the back two, with a Gibson 3-way switch. Fingerboard was replaced with one of the Sweet Address boards. It's in nice shape for a 40 year old guitar -now in grateful hands in CA
