VINTAGE NOT A REISSUE. FROM 1960. THIS GUITAR SOUNDS AS GOOD AS SHE LOOKS ALL KNOBS AND CONTROLS WORK FINE . IT STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL PLASTIC COVER FOR THE GUITAR BODY FROM THE FACTORY! I DOUBT YOU WILL EVER SEE ANOTHER ONE WITH IT. THE CHIP BOARD CASE IS PLUSH LINED WITH RED VELVET. BLENDER KNOB ADDS MANY SOUND POSSIBILITIES..metal script silver tone logo on headstock,not painted. ..THE PAINT IS IN GREAT CONDITION. A COUPLE CHIPS ON THE HEADSTOCK .THERE A SMALL AMOUNT OF MARING ON THE BACK OF THE HEADSTOCK THAT LOOKS LIKE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT , BUT IT IS NOT VERY NOTICEABLE. I WILL SHIP INTERNATIONALLY..CHECK OUT MY OTHER GUITARS FOR SALE AND PAST HAPPY GUITAR BUYER FEEDBACKS! NO RETURNS OR PARTIAL REFUNDS ....THANKS
