One cannot help but sense the unique character of an instrument that has been played extensively over the years.\u003cbr\u003e \nThanks to repairs centered around a refret, the playing feel is smooth and responsive.\u003cbr\u003e \n(It appears the guitar was unplugged and not powered for an extended period. There is a slight crackling sound in the control section, but this subsides after being connected to an amp for a while; therefore, we have chosen to keep the original electronic components in place.
