Lets see those 5513's

I picked up this old thing about 1 week ago. Of course I brought her immediately in for a servicing and now I am anxiously awaiting her return.

Lets see your vintage pieces.

I loved the 5513s that I had and regret selling both of them, especially the WG model because it was in mint condition. The Tudor Sub that I had has risen considerably in value.

Awesome, awesome thread. Now, why would anyone want to supercase the sub?

For variety, perhaps.

I personally prefer the older sports models with thinner lugs and flatter bezels.
