~ Close-ups of the few minor blemishes ~ (Please notice that these pictures are 2 to 3 times larger than real life) This is Initial Inspection Page 4 of 6: |
This guitar is extremely rare and in exceptionally Excellent 99% condition. External inspection indicates it would be in Mint condition were it not for a very few minor dings and scuffs. Some Dealers & Collectors would rightfully call it Near Mint. |

Notice: Should a person so desire, an expert Artist, Luthier or Guitar Repairman could touch up the dings on this guitar with exactly matched colors of acrylic fingernail polish or professional acrylic paint. Most if not all of the few small scuffs on this guitar could be cleaned off or possibly lightly scrubbed off and polished. Only a professional should clean off any spots that don't easily wipe off with a conservative quantity of mild liquid dish soap solution. ~~~~~~~ I can do that work expertly should a Customer desire. |

EXTERNAL INSPECTION'S LIST OF ITEMS OF CONSIDERATION: () The operational contacts of switches, pots and output jack should be cleaned and lubed. Will require removing the pickguard to access those electronics. () There is no vibrato arm. Vibrato arms are quite easily fabricated by anyone reasonably familiar and handy with working metal with even home grade power tools; And can even be done with common hand tools upon existing metal stock close to the size of the vibrato arm. () The case butt's protective scuff-plate is slightly bent and sligtly loose. It can be easily bent back and it's rivets retightened with a center punch or other means of recompressing them. () The case's safety strap to secure the guitar in it's case, ...has 1 exposed rivet face where a piece of red felt about the size of a dime is no longer there. There is plenty of extra accessible felt in the folds of the guitar's plush lining to cut a piece of that matching felt from and glue onto the rivet as was originally done. Such plush red felt is also available at stores that have sewing fabrics. () #4's Tuner clutch gear screw is a non-original phillips screw. I probably have a correct replacement screw, and if so I will install it if a Buyer requests I do so. |
