Bill Lawrence BC1D-62 Challenger 1D the mid 80’s.  Beautiful single piece of alder was used in spite of mid-low price model(65,000JPY).

It is similar to BC1D-57 except for fingerboard and 3-ply pick guard stayed by 11 screws like Stratocaster 64’s, and orthodox shaped bridge piece.

Look the last photo and you can see plate magnets on the back of pickups.  Those are BlackTracer pickups.  The famous BlackLabel pickups require following conditions.

1) naked bobbin with single center hole.
2) no bar magnet on its back side.

Let me a little talk about BlackLabel pickups.

BlackLabels seem to have problems of weather resistance, might be weaker for moisture than other naked bobbin pickups.  Cases of broken wire without remarkable changes of appearance have been frequently reported.  If the wire disconnection occurs around the end of wire, the pickup makes no sound.  But if it occurs around the middle of the coil, it can make sound because of electrical capacitance.  In other words, disconnected by DC but connected by AC.  In those cases, the sound loses low frequency component.  If you get BlacLabel on auction, please make sure to ask the low tone expression of the pickup.

This guitar makes wonderful sound. Unplugged sound resembles acoustic guitar.
