What makes this guitar special:  Super cool, true vintage beauty with sweet tone & a great feel.  Skinny maple neck that’s easy to play, connected to a lightweight ash body finished in classic walnut.  Naturally aged with a beautiful patina.  Professionally inspected by the experts at Cream City Music & set up ready to play straight out of the case.Cosmetic Condition:  Good honest play wear – various nicks, chips, dents & dings; surface scratches, weather checking & some finish wear. Neck:  Slender profile maple neck with skunk stripe & black dot inlays.  Original small frets show moderate play wear.  Large headstock with double string trees & bullet truss rod.  F-tuners are in perfect working condition.  1 5/8” nut width; 25 ½” scale length.  Neck is straight & truss rod is in good working condition.Body:  Contoured, solid swamp ash body finished in original Walnut.  The neck/body connection is a very tight fit making for wonderful transference of sound & energy.  Tremolo bridge with adjustable saddles & unoriginal trem arm included.  3-ply black pickguard shows some pick wear, but is in great shape overall with no cracks.  Guitar weighs 7 lbs 9.4 oz - nice weight!
Pickups:  Fender black bottom single coils with staggered poles & white covers.  All three pickups are pretty evenly matched at about 5.40K ohms each.  Master volume & dual tone controls with white skirted knobs; unoriginal 5-way selector switch.  One pot dates to '73, one dates to '75 & one is difficult to read the code.  All electronics are in good working condition.Case:  Original hardshell case included.  The outside of the case has a pretty old Who sticker on it.
