More Information

See images regarding the crack. A very good repair and not visible from the inside. The outside can only be seen due to the slight difference in Lacquer colour. Otherwise in good condition. Top nice and flat. Neck straight. Indent wear to frets up to 6th fret. Catches slightly when bending at much lower frets but still plenty of life left. Body with some surface marks as to be expected for age, but a high quality, good playing instrument in acceptable condition for age.
