The action at the 12th fret is high at 3/16"; the truss was adjusted so it might need slight saddle or nut work. It's supremely playable and beautiful sounding on the lower frets, however! The bridge is beginning to lift ever so slightly on the bass side, and it has a previously repaired crack in the front of the body and other signs of age. Comes with hard case.
