The finish and fabric has cracked in areas, and is lifting in some areas on the front. There are numerous small chips and dings, along with light checking. The neck is glossy and smooth, with light wear on the fingerboard.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eModifications\/Repairs: \u003c\/b\u003eThe neck has been refretted and the nut has been replaced.
