This is Mint - nearly as new, The pickguard, covers and knobs were changed out to "customize" it a little bit. The original parts are included, the original pickguard like the back cover still has the plastic on it, guitar has had fresh strings put on a few weeks ago. This was never out of the house to play, it's been correctly stored for almost all it's life. Comes with everything seen in the pics, not sure what happened to the cable but it is missing. Don't give expensive guitars to beginning students.
