No cracks or breaks in the wood. Electronics work fine with the stock two single coil pickups. Somewhat cosmetically challenged but a great player. Looks like it was stored somewhere with high humidity causing just the finish to craze and lift in places. Neck relief was unaffected as it plays fine up and down the fingerboard.

Looks to be original parts other than the bridge, which looks like a newer issue of the "Lightning Bolt" kind that would have been present from the factory and the tuners which are earlier vintage but type correct. It had a Gibson vibrato tailpiece at one time. The screw holes were filled and finished.

Very comfortable instrument to play at 5lbs 13oz. Comes with the strap and a gig bag in good shape. $1150.00
