Serial number A405597. You'd be hard pressed to find a more solid model of this guitar from this era. No cracks ,splits, breaks or repairs. New front side binding was just completed. The back binding has a few slight breaks that are very thin. There is a minor gouge in the back as well as a small ding on the front. Some of the edges on the front by the binding show minor discrepancies. All of the above mentioned will be photographed to the best of my ability. Action is very good measuring 1/18

The frets show very little if any wear and the neck and fretboard are spotless mint. Other than a small nick by the High E string, the headstock is immaculate on both sides and has no other imperfections. The pick guard shows minor imperfections. The back developed very nice, tight crackling in the clear coat. It seems this guitar wasnt played much and just sat in the case that has No rips, tears or discoloration. The latches all function correctly and hold the case closed tight

If the body were the void of any of the signs of it being 50 yrs old, this guitar would be considered Excellent.
