Good condition. . Spruce top, Brazilian rosewood back and sides, ebony fingerboard and bridge. Ladder bracing on top. All original except bridge plate replaced by MacBlane Stringed Instruments. Several repaired back cracks and edge of top on bass side has been repaired. 1 7/8” nut. Scale: ~24 9/16. Lower bout: 13 1/8”. Upper bout 9 ½”. Body depth: 3” to 4 1/8”.

I have it strung with silk and steel strings and its quite playable on the lower frets. A wonderful, sweet and clear sounding guitar.
