The Pink Paisley finish exhibits subtle yellowing of the clear coat, giving the foil beneath the paisley pattern a golden sheen. Cosmetic wear is limited to one ding just north of the input jack, a light speckling of patina on the chrome-plated hardware, and a touch of pick scuffing on the treble-side of the transparent pickguard. The satin finish on the neck profile is flawless.

The original Fender-branded gigbag is included, along with the original hangtags, receipt, cable, and owner's manual.
