| Cosmetic Condition: | The guitar has aged nicely, with plenty of natural finish checking on the glossy finish, along with numerous dings, scratches, and other signs of use. There are two repaired cracks along the top of the body, extending from either side of the neck heel. The tortoiseshell material has shrunk with age, but is still secure. |
| Tech Notes: | The guitar plays well with low action and optimal neck relief, and is currently set up with 12-53 phosphor bronze strings. The narrow frets are low with light wear present. This model dates to the 1960s; the original factory year markings are faded and illegible, preventing a more specific identification. |
