Condition Report:

This shred machine has been well played and loved picking up chips and dings over it's 38 year lifespan, on the negative side the string clamps have been lost to time as well as a knife edge on the tremolo unit, and of course significant paint loss on the corners that comes naturally with flying V types. But it stays in tune and plays great with the sound being unmistakably Fender, set up with a set of 9's.
