ITEM CONDITION
All machinery, electrical, and pickups are without issue. Some very light surface marks, some very small impressions/dings/dimples/chips, light aging and tarnish to the gold machinery - as pictured. The tone knob (lower section of the stacked knob) on the bridge functions fine, however it skips between 0-10 position, meaning you can keep turning it.
