Is this 20 or 21?

Nowhere on the label does it say "20E" - it says "MODEL 20".

> Knobs are original.

No, that tuning knob is not original (too large).

Early production 21 sets did indeed use leftover 20 chassis, and the label stated "MODEL 20". I owned one once, and while the label did read MODEL 20, the label was slightly different from this older label. And my 20/21 also had the same knobs as regular Model 20 sets, not the rosettes they switched to later on.
