The top shows some wear in the form of dings, nail wear, finish checks, and regular use. The back and sides are in cleaner shape, and the figure of the rosewood is quite nice with a three dimensional look to the grain.
Surprising amount of volume from this guitar, and it has very nice traditional voice with a nice pop in the trebles. Set up nicely with string height of ~3mm to ~2.5mm from bass to treble.
Thanks for looking, any questions please let me know.
