Freshly inspected and set up in-house by our esteemed Guitar Tech. In Fair to Poor condition with modest cosmetic wear including light scratches, small dings, and other normal signs of handling and use.
There are some structural issues, however. It appears to us that someone replaced the neck on this guitar and performed some amateur fret work. We've cleaned up the frets as much as possible, but because the neck is somewhat ill fitting (see photo of neck pocket), we could not get the action below 1/4 inch. Our Guitar Tech says this would make a good slide guitar and we agree. We've priced the guitar accordingly.
Please contact us for an in-hand description and to ask any questions you may have. See below for more details and specifications.

NOTE TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS:
We want you to be happy with your purchase and we try to represent the condition of all used and vintage guitars as accurately as possible in our listings. Every used guitar shows some signs of play wear and vintage models even more so. We call out all areas of damage or unusual wear, and describe the overall condition based upon what is "normal" for the age of the instrument. Expect to see minor dings, finish checking, or other evidence of normal use and aging which may not be captured by photography or explicitly mentioned in the listing.
We recognize that everyone has their own personal standard of what constitutes acceptable wear and tear. If play wear is especially critical for you, please contact us for a complete in-hand description and to answer any questions you may have. Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us.
