CTS pot + orange drop capacitor, the control knob has also been replaced with a recent one, and original parts are not included.There are traces of the short vibration roller being removed, and the mounting screw holes have been easily touched up. Kibe: Although most everything except the pickup has been replaced and the originality is low, there is no history of major repairs such as broken neck repairs or refinishing.The neck is almost straight and in good condition, the truss rod works well, the nut and frets have been replaced, and the replaced wider frets have been rubbed together, so the overall height is a little lower, but it looks good. There is no chatter or clogging of the sound, and the playability is good.In addition to its dignified appearance, including weather checks throughout and countless damages, it has a wonderful dry tone that feels solidly acoustic even though it is combined with recently manufactured parts.If you are looking for a 60s Gibson Epiphone with a regular neck that can be used easily. This is a book I recommend to anyone.218Guitars buys and sells guitars on consignment.
