The Olympic White finish is deeply yellowed with horizontal finish checking, and there is some faint darker speckling and similar associated wear from contact with the lining of a case, mostly behind the bridge on top and on the back. Wear is otherwise limited to some wear through the clear coat to a brighter white finish on the perimeter of the slab body, and some scattered small dings and finish chips. The gloss on the neck profile is deeply ambered, highlighting the flame figuring on the profile length. There is palm wear behind frets 1-2, extending up the treble-side shoulder.
The original Fender-branded hardshell case is included.
