Condition Report
Each in overall fine and working condition. We would suggest having the wiring reviewed by a professional electrician to ensure safety and proper function. While presently working, we cannot guarantee the wiring will be unaffected during shipping.
One example is in overall fine condition showing some pitting to the glaze and light surface wear commensurate with age and handling, with few frets to the edges. The other example showing old repairs to the top half. It is possible that the second example suffered more severe damage and has been rebuilt.
