"Western special". Pinless style bridge. Older models (pre 1956 ?) had a different, rounded "figure eight" body - No pickguard on early years - Barclay branded version wears H1203-3 model number.

H40 - Uno-tone, electrified flat top - 1954-1957 - Acoustic flatop - Natural
1 pickup at the end of fretboard - later replaced by H55. A brace was removed under the top to make place for the pickup, so they may not be as solid as the pure acoustic version. Note the fretboard is longer, and soundhole is lowered if compared to the H1203 or other pure acoustics. Pickup looks like a variation of the P13 pickup. 4 screws hold it in place.
