Condition: Used, Very Good
SP Luthier Notes: Some of the frets were polished and made to be level with the other frets. The truss rod and bridge were fully adjusted. The frets ends were sticking out and were rounded off and polished. There were finish touch ups around the bridge, around which the finish had bubbled, as well as cracks in the finish (but not the guitar itself) around the area of the nut of the guitar. There was also a light finish touch up around the area of the fingerboard extension. Our luthier addressed these areas and verified their stability. No further work was required.
