Overspray on the back of the neck and back of the guitar.
Period correct repro Pickguard.Neck is quite chunky (about 0.95'' at first fret) with low action all over the fretboard.   Frets in good condition (first frets show more usage).
Please note that the strings are slightly off-centered on top of the pickups.
