Overall Good "Players" Condition.
Just Set Up with New Strings, Frets Polished, Fretboard Conditioned. This guitar is a BEAST!! Total Martin Killer. The Tone and Volume from this guitar is incredible.

This guitar is 50 years old and has seen its fair share of life so it's not without its bumps, bruises and a few dings along the way. (Pictured) Overall though this guitar has plenty of life left, the frets, neck, bridge are all good, the action is reasonably low, and the sound is warm, huge, and ear pleasing. Priced to sell fast!!
