That is just awesome. That finish has faded into something very unique.

Not on the V63.

I replaced the stock jack in my V63 with a stereo jack and it sounds great!

Oh, and I think the "PMC option" was the "only option" at the time, because my standard '86 4003 also has the reversed headstock.

Yeah, to my knowledge they didn't do "proper" lefty headstocks, at all, until the 90s.

It's aged so nicely, I thought it was an actual 1960s instrument!

(Although thinking about it, Paul's was the only lefty made in the 60s right?)
