This is a fantastic guitar. It has been kept in my smoke-free studio. There are a couple couple light scratches on the headstock and a scratch on the lower edge. Please see the photographs. This thing works fantastic as an electric pluged into an amp, or even a PA with acoustic sounds. The real key to making this guitar fantastic is the way it connects to guitar synths with 13 pin cables. Feel free to ask questions!I will ship it with a Godin hardshell case for safe shipping. It will have the Tremelo bar, the key, and I will throw in a capo. The case does show some scuffs.
