Description
Cosmetic Condition: Nearly 100% original (aside from the strap buttons & jackplate) with a super cool vintage vibe! The gold finish has that perfectly aged look with some really nice "greening" on the bass side. There are various nicks, chips, dents & dings throughout the guitar along with surface scratches & some play wear. There are no cracks, breaks or repairs in the neck or body. Overall the guitar has a great look to it with a gorgeous patina. It has been professionally set up by us with a fresh pack of strings & low action, so it sounds amazing!
