For a 40-year-old guitar, it's incredible. No warps, no loose glue joints. Finish still very good looking. Plays like a greased pig.

Rock solid. Would take it camping and on airplanes to fit in overheads and still be able to play on trips.

They're cheap, and have great necks. If you find one, buy it.
