Vintage 1960's Hy-Lo (Hoshino Gakki) Model 2103 Electric Guitar MIJConditionThis guitar is in good working condition. The neck is very straight for a guitar this old, and the truss rod is fully functional. There are some minor grooves developing in the frets, and a few have a rough texture. The action is comfortable and the guitar plays well. The electronics are fully functional, free from hiss, hum, or crackle. The tremelo bridge is in great shape and has a fluid action. Cosmetics
