In effort of full transparency this guitar does has some finish imperfections; as can be expected with a hand applied, non-factory finish. Rest assured these are purely cosmetic in nature and do not affect the playability of the instrument in any way. I would say it would be in line with what a used instrument exhibit.
If you can look past some cosmetic flaws in the finish you have an opportunity to pick up a fantastic, well playing hand crafted instrument.
If you have questions, please ask. Please review all provided information and photos and ask any questions you may have prior to bidding or buying as I do not accept returns.
Note: While each instrument is setup for great playability (including fretwork, neck relief, string height) preferences will differ between players – as such you may need to do some adjusting once received to match your playing style.
No case is included, but instrument will be packed well for travel.
