I bought this guitar from a private seller. It appears to be in 100% original condition with no repairs modifications or refinishing. It plays very nice with loud projection. The action is low and frets easily. The first second and third fret show some wear. The body of the guitar has a few abrasions that show in the pictures but are small and are just on the surface. The clear finish has checking common to a vintage Gibson. The case fits the guitar well but I don\'t know if it is original or not. It is in decent shape with all hardware working.
