No breaks, cracks or repairs. Minimal play wear found on neck and back. Pot codes date to 1979. Has Tim Shaw pickups that are amazing, thinner neck, rare flip out tuners and diamond posi lock strap buttons. Nicknamed the Minister Paul because under blacklight conditions only, the word minister can be seen across the top part of the body, a ghost like image resulting form a decades old sticker I assume was once placed there then removed and buffed to eliminate all evidence under normal light by its first owner.Your choice of case: The original red lined generation 2 chainsaw protector case in excellent shape. (Red case has middle back latch broken but I have a correct OEM replacement latch included with purchase) OR a blue lined 1981 generation 3 chainsaw protector case in excellent shape that could be used instead of the red lined one (Blue case has missing exterior logo and has a small crack in plastic on underside that has no effect of case function)Note: This will ship from Canada.
