So this one borders non-functioning because the truss rod is most likely non functional. I don't have a truss wrench that is "stubby" enough to get in the pocket and really see but it's not looking very promising...


Obviously a very shotty repair on the headstock, but it does hold at pitch so whoever "fixed" it deserves some credit.


Body is surprisingly solid and worn to age, electronics are fully functional and clean as a whistle.

Playable but kinda high action, strings feel great, not sure of the brand. A fun project for Sure!

Thanks for looking!
