CONDITION:Description from VintageSilvertones.com
This guitar is very clean and in good condition. There are three barely visible scratches that do not even penetrate the finish on the back: two near the upper treble horn and one closer to the center. We share information about wear in the interest of full discloser, but this guitar looks as if it was hardly ever played and kept really well. This 1448 still plays great and sounds fantastic.Description from VintageSilvertones.com

TUNERS:Description from VintageSilvertones.com
The closed back, six in-line, one-piece chrome tuners with metal, skate key buttons are in very good working order.
