Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Very Good. There is a small ding below the volume and tone knobs, another near the top strap button, and another near the bridge pickup. There is also a minor scratch on the back above the electronics cavity. No other cosmetic flaws were noted.
SP Luthier Notes: A majority of frets showed evidence of play wear. As such, the frets were leveled, recrowned, and polished back to a near mint state. The guitar required an adjustment to the truss rod, nut, and bridge to be brought to a perfect level of playability. No further work was required.
