The gloss Black finish shows light buckle rash central to the back and some minor dings on the body, primarily concentrated along the perimeter and on the back. The ambered gloss on the neck profile is clean and smooth,  with just a few shallow nicks that are not distracting to the palm while fretting.

A gigbag is included.
