Instant honest reaction, that's really bad.
The lacquered rosewood fingerboard instantly made you cringe - It just got worse the more you looked at it - After a longer evaluation and a chat it was confirmed that is was a J Birch 'restoration' carried out in the early 70's
Lacquered boards was a common JB mod - See it on many SG's as well as a few with his 'super flux' p/up changes - Look at Slade for such work
My JB Les Paul was massively improved by stripping the stupidly thick lacquer that covered everything, and refinishing in a thin coat of nitro. I did this as it was badly damaged and most of the lacquer was already falling off in razor blade sharp flakes. It's also been changed to normal wiring with a varitone and kill switch filling the extra holes.
