More Information

Generally in good condition. The most major thing to note is that there is a large scratch to the back with some buckle rash. There is also a fair sized blemish on the back of the neck that looks like a wood knot that has been filled with glue. This blemish does stand out in the hand but can easily be sanded back. Electrics are working with some slight crackle but this is probably from inactivity. There are other small knocks and surface marks across the top but these can only be seen up close when caught in the light.
