Lets get the bad stuff out of the way. The guitar has solid pro repaired headstock crack. it is impossible to photograph. Its almost invisible. The front of the headstock has been replaced & refinished. 2 pots replaced originals included. This is how I got the instrument. It is a consignment. Please see photos they are part of the description. Now the good stuff. The face of the guitar is relatively clean. The back has a small spot of buckle rash. I has all original parts, Except saddles of the tune-o-matic originals in case The tuners are probably replaced. All the plastic parts appear original. It is a first year 1959. The original orange label shown in photos. In the other F hole has the production number stamped, Begins with "S" the letter for '59. It retains its original PAF pickups. The guitar is wired MONO, It sounds great & has that vintage feel & vibe. It has very little fret wear but appears to be a re-fret. Comes in original Brown Pink hard case. Sale in USA only please.
