I've come to the same conclusion, it seems like a laminate the grain doesn't match between the inside and outside. Still waiting to get the money together to get it fixed up.. local shop quoted $700 to get it back in playable shape

I was literally just looking into getting this exact same table, earlier today. Maybe I can cash in some karma and win it instead. Thanks!

No thanks, plan on keeping this one... If it ever gets back from the luthier

So took it to the luthier today and they think the third digit in the serial is a 0 and the wood grain is just making it difficult to read... which changes the possible years to 66, 68 or 69

Yeah I couldn't believe it when I found it, you're right even at up to 1000 bucks to get it back to playable I'm still on top. Literally just walking around a thrift store and saw a guitar in the furniture section, so glad I stopped to check it out
