All 3 pickups working and the controls seem to be ok. Pickup selector works. Tone pots have some crackle in them and the volume put seems to cut out completely around 5 and dropped out intermittently when rolling up and down so this requires investigation. Pots are not original to the guitar.

There are lacquer cracks to the body (front and back) of various sizes so please see additional images to get an idea of those. Tuners work fine, there was some creaking coming from the neck pocket when tuning up but I believe this is just to do with the screws in back.

There are also various other dings, scuffs and marks to the body. Please see images for guidance.
