Looks like an old one to me, I'd venture earlier than my 1976 Series 1.  And with a Fender-type headstock to boot!  Cool, but a little pricey IMHO

Yes, definitely looks like an oldie. Bottom omega cutout is almost microscopic! Interesting.
 
Tan humcanceller, old U-shaped bridge, and no (single) trussrod cover...betcha it's 1976 or before. Wonder what those neck woods are?

I would guess 1974 myself.  Or it could be an early 1975.  Check out the pickups with just the one adjustment screw on each side.  That was used throughout 1974.  In 1975 they went to the twin screw on each side.
