    . I only ship FedEx ground. If you want faster, let me know so I can calculate the charges.
    Factory fresh hard shell case add 0.  This is highly recommended though my packing is state of the art.  Better, actually.
    Sound is amazing studio recording with light gauge strings. And I never over rate sound quality.  Check out my website and Reverb feedback.
    So, you are buying this guitar for tone quality, not for looks. And I can say without reservation you will not be disappointed. This guitar has nice play-ability and perfect intonation. Action is Low-E 4/64 High_E 4/64-5/64 at the 12th fret. My guess is you will put all other guitars aside and play this one. In short, this guitar is worth the price.
    Neck was reset.
    Back was removed, top braces removed, new V-pattern braces installed.
    I almost always replace the heel cap, which is usually loose or crumbling.
    As usual, satisfaction is guaranteed. Returns allowed per our warranty.
    I pay attention to small details. The inside back and sides are cleaned up and sanded smooth. Back braces are rounded and sanded smooth. Top braces are tapered and sanded smooth. Serial numbers (if any) are preserved. I do what Harmony should have done 50 years ago.

    Condition
    Top - No cracks. No pick wear. A previous owner had glued script initials on the top. This was not repairable since removing pulled off finish and some wood. What a shame since these red burst finished guitars are some of the prettiest in any brand.
    Back -No cracks.
    Sides - three scratches not through the wood showing in the image.
    Gear head back and face are good. Missing finish on edges here and there.
    Neck - Very good all around with an important exception. The heel was broken. This is very substantially repaired but visible.
    Please note: many sellers do not accept returns. I do. I am all about customer satisfaction. This is a great guitar you will want to keep and play for years. This is not something I just want to get rid of.  I want and need your happy satisfied feedback.
