*Condition*
The guitar remains attractive and in very good overall condition, and displays some honest signs of use. There's some scattered scratching on the sides, mostly near the binding. Some light scuffs on the back, and a noticeable scuff on the neck of the guitar. Really nice glossy finish. The only modification is a piezo(?) pickup has been installed underneath the bridge.
It’s a plug & play pick up that has no volume nor tone controls. Plug in a 1/4” standard guitar cable & you’re good to go!
Please review all photos closely for the most accurate representation of condition. As with any previously owned acoustic guitar, the buyer may wish to have the setup adjusted to personal playing preference.
Includes her original, high quality Martin fitted hard-shell case. #533E with Cabernet fabric lining.
