Loaded with the original Super 70 pickup in the neck and a Dimarzio PAF Pro in the bridge (coil splittable via the mini toggle). Good vintage condition as pictured with some

The frets are shiny with some life left and the neck is straight with a fully functional truss rod

A hard-shell case is also included
