From the photographs you can see that
it has been well used and altered from its
original state.
One of the pick ups has
been replaced (after a
mysterious swelling began
to appear on the original!).
The pick ups have been adjusted with the pole pieces for the
B string lowered and the high E string raised on both of them.
There is also damping material between the 1st and 2nd strings
and, on the bridge, material placed under the 3rd and 4th strings.
