• Three basic types of C-Record era FD, with a subtle variation to one:

    • 1. Record, which is immediately apparent from the dog-leg/dovetailed pivot;
    • 2a. CDA/2nd gen. Chorus (RS), alloy arm which is chamfered at the end by the cable clamp bolt and (sometimes?) has a drilled braze-on clamp bolt;
    • 2b. 1st gen Chorus/Athena, unchamfered alloy arm;
    • 3. Athena/Veloce, steel arm.

    I think 2a and 2b may have had hex and Allen head nut variants, but I gave up squinting at low res catalogue scans and C-Record era in general a while ago: life got so, much easier in 1995. :)

    TL/DR
    CDA/2G Chorus on the left, Athena/Veloce on the right (of the first picture).
