It's an SRG300 apparently. I've just watched this, and while it turned out not-quite-as-bad as I expected, it was a bit (a lot) too gaudy for my taste. I would have preferred a proper restoration to the original wood finish, but then I'm like that. I suppose if it saves it from the boneyard then it's OK.
At least it didn't get the 'distressed' look.
