More Information

Generally as per description. The body has been refinished and may have had work due to suspicious raised points underneath the guard. There are also signs of the multi-join body beneath the finish with hairlines visible. Potentiometers appear original and date to 1981. Pickups replaced, pickguard appears later as do the pickguard screws. Minor wear to frets and fretboard lacquer. Personal viewing advised.
