Greetings,This one is worth your attention. The guitar is all original (less the tail piece) and never had any modifications whatsoever. The original black finish will show few surface/finish weather checking marks where your right arm rests (they are NOT wood cracks (obviously)), small area of surface buckle rash that does NOT penetrate the finish, wear on the gold elements (normal for almost 40 years old instrument). The frets are in flat shape and there's about 40% fret life left. The action is low (and it can go lower) without any buzz and no fretting out! The original tar back pickups are strong and sound great, the potentiometers work fine without any intermission. The neck is straight and the ebony fretboard is smooth without any cracks/splits! The body has all the normal wear for almost 40 years old instrument such as weather checking on the lower bout and the already mentioned area above the bridge pickup. The tuners are strong and fully operational. The truss rod moves nicely and operates as it should. There are no splits anywhere to be found and the back of the neck is smooth! The guitar just had my personal set up and clean up including new strings (10s), intonation and basic set up. The original hard shell case is in great condition both externally and internally for being that old. It is sold as is, as described, no returns, no partial refunds! Thanks.
