For that reason, it is not in the best condition but all 3 pick ups are still in good working order. Here is a list of the defects that I've spotted: - Slight rust on headstock pegs - Quite a few scratches and marks on back of neck - A couple of small cracks at base of neck - Some bits of rust on the pick ups - Rust underneath the bridge on the whammy bar - 5 fairly large cracks to the base of the body on the front As it is such a rare guitar I have put an asking price of £250.
