This guitar plays well and it has a nice feel to it. It was made in 1983 and it’s been kept in very good condition for its age. It has small signs of fret use and very low action making it pleasant to play. The electronics work perfectly and they sound really good. The old electronics were taken out and installed were all upgraded parts. This includes new Pots, a Dimarzio DP280BKSU vintage pickup a Dimarzio DP223FBKU vintage pickup, Gibson speed knobs, and some other upgraded electronic parts. Being a 1983, it has some small signs of use including some small scratches, indentions, and some finish checking. All of these things are just cosmetic, don’t affect how it plays, and they are hardly noticeable since it’s black. This guitar doesn’t come with a case but it will be packaged incredibly well for shipping. Overall it’s a very nice vintage Gibson guitar thats very pleasant to play and it sounds great!
