The entire front of this Mark III Deluxe is in excellent condition. The back and sides have dings, finish chips and checking is present.This Magnatone plays incredibly well. The action can go any which way you prefer with room to move. The neck is straight, and the frets need no attention. As seen in the video, all notes sing perfectly over the entire course of the neck. The circuit is quiet, clean and both pickups hit around 5k, insuring zero drop in output in any toggle position.
The original Bakelite tuner buttons are crumbling. For the video demo, a few of them were glued together.
Ships in the OHSC; excellent condition with minor exterior wear and mint interior.
Adjustments and cleaning are not performed except dusting for photos.
Please view our store policies before purchase. Thank you for looking!
