This guy has aged wonderfully since it's birth in 1966. The top has normal, even checking with a few dings and marks, but nothing too major. The back is in excellent shape with only finish checking. There are three small holes where a pickguard used to be attached and one where a strap button used to be. The neck and headstock have moderate checking and some portions where there is finish missing. The frets have some wear, but do not buzz and play great.
