Condition: it's likely evident from looking at the photos, that this guitar has been played, and played heavily. The top shows playwear down to bare wood around the soundhole and in front of the bridge; and this area has localized finish touch up. One repaired top crack, one repaired back crack, and the scattered finish chipping / peeling emblematic of so many mid-40's Gibsons. The bridge has been replaced; and our shop has just refretted the fingerboard. In all? A great-playing SJ with tone and vibe to spare. Priced with non-original hard case.
