Condition Report:
This guitar is presented in very good condition throughout. The Fiesta Red refinish has started to check nicely, and although the pickups have been replaced for a later set (dating to 1984), they still sound brilliant in this guitar. There are no large marks or dents to the guitar, just general age-related wear and checking. The guitar has been refretted, and currently show roughly 80% of life remaining. The plastics are all original, and there are a couple of cracks occurring in the usual places for an early '60s example, particularly near the right horn where the plastic has snapped off slightly.
