Cosmetic Condition: Lots of good, honest play wear - various nicks, chips, dents & dings; scratches, weather checking & some finish wear. There's a small crack in the body near the out jack that was professionally glued & is stable. Overall the guitar has an authentic vintage vibe & beautiful patina.
