This Guitar is in overall very good condition for it’s age. It has some light scuffs &scratches, some dings and a few small finish chips. We do not believe these are the original pickups but they are vintage Dimarzios from that era and a few parts of electronics have been replaced to make functional again, but is to Neal Moser Specifications.
