The gloss nitro lacquer finish presents very cleanly, with a few areas of broad lacquer checking on top and very little checking on the back and sides. There’s a small area of light finish scuffing central to the back, a few small dings behind the bridge on top, and a few additional minor nicks and scuffs consistent with use. The finish on the neck profile is clean and smooth.

The original gray molded hardshell case is included.
