Very good condition overall except for a slight scratch on the top. There is a slight surface unevenness on the back, probably due to long-term storage in the case, but it does not spoil the appearance. Original shellac finish. There is no problem with playability-related parts such as the neck, frets, and machine head. Considering the period since it was made, it can be said that it is a very good used item.
