Fender Japan denotes the finish as Vintage Natural, yet it reads as a pale Butterscotch Blonde, and cosmetic wear includes some pick scuffing on top, a few small finish chips along the body perimeter, and some minor dings on the body as a whole. The neck profile retains its smooth ambered gloss.

The original Fender gigbag is included.
