Cosmetic Condition: The guitar shows moderate cosmetic wear, with numerous small dents, dings, and scratches on the glossy finish. There is some finish wear on the top from the bridge lifting and subsequently being removed and reglued, including a finish chip at the treble wing which was glued back in. There are two long repaired cracks in the top, along with patches of finish checking and a few spots of stand rash. The back of the body has light buckle rash, and the back of the neck is smooth with only a couple small blemishes.
Serial Number: 90158038
Tech Notes: The guitar plays well with low action and optimal neck relief, and is currently set up with 12-53 phosphor bronze strings. The saddle is low, and so downward adjustability of the action is limited. The frets are medium height with divots underneath the treble strings up to the 9th fret, along with a few smaller divots under the bass strings.
