Description
Cosmetic Condition: 100% original & in very nice condition for its age. The Wine Red finish is very strong & vibrant, and the gold really hasn't tarnished much on the hardware. The guitar is stamped a factory second & the neck was professionally reset by our own luthier some time ago. The reset & neck angle are perfect with no playability issues. There is of course a little bit of finish disruption around the neck heel, but it's quite minimal & barely noticeable. It more or less blends in with the overall condition of the guitar. There are various nicks, dents & dings; surface scratches & general light play wear. The guitar has been professionally set up by us with a fresh pack of strings & low action, so it plays & sounds amazing!
