At some point this guitar has had a headstock break repair. The work appears to have been done at professionally high standard, however it has not been refinished as invisible. This of course could definitely be done at a later date, however we are selling the guitar "as is".
 
 
Condition:
Other cosmetic wear includes a mark on the back left of the body next to the control plate. Some spots in the back of the body. Overall in fair condition. This guitar has had a headstock repair, please check the photos.
