Now I remember the rap on this guy, at least the main one. He would offer real vintage Teles and Esquires that allegedly were assembled from real vintage parts he bought, some people were following his parts purchases on eBay.
Saying that a guitar is all original when you have bought missing original parts for it to make it all original is a bit sketchy. OTOH I don't think he ever claimed that every part on the guitar was the same one it had when it left the factory. Caveat emptor, especially in the vintage market.
