    I would say it is in very nice condition
    The pickguard has a crack that has been glued, seems to hold on fine
    There are hairline cracks on the top (picture no 9), appear to be only in the laquer
    There are some rash in the laquer, picture one, on the top above the bridge
    I guess it needs a to be looked over by a luthier, but a really nice vintage instrument
    Will be sent in double boxes with protectives
