Condition Report

Overall: Excellent Cosmetic Condition / Plays

Beautifully. The guitar has been meticulously cared for, has a straight neck, functioning truss rod, and plenty of fret life.

Electronics Note: The first tone knob (Tone 1) has stopped working and will need to be serviced. It likely just needs a quick solder joint touch-up or a simple potentiometer replacement. The S-1 switch, volume pot, second tone knob, and 5-way pickup selector all function perfectly and sound incredible.

Body: The gorgeous Mystic Black finish is in stellar shape, retaining its vibrant metallic flake shine. There is one small, isolated finish nick near the lower bout/bridge area (clearly highlighted in the close-up photos). It is purely cosmetic.
