So Clean and the Grain lines are very nice, such a pleaseure to play.

We have given it a complete going over and it is ACES. It is under 9 lbs., with the Covers and the Case is great too. The Hard Shell Case is great, all the latches are solid and work perfect, the hings are solid it is a great case.
We priced this one on the condition and the weight, you honestly do not see them in this condition and this light. It would make an amazing addition to any Stage, Studio or Collection !

Weight Variable: Ash bodies from this specific era vary wildly in weight, usually sitting heavily between 9.9 lbs and 11.1 lbs. Lower-weight examples generally fetch a slight market premium. This one is only 8 Lbs 13 Ozs.
