The striking thing about this instrument is the originality. Its condition is consistent with being extensively played by a professional musician over seven years and shows lots of wear and tear but temptation has been resisted to do any restoration and it retains its originality The case is sound but has lost its carrying handle and the cover is torn and missing in parts - consistent with being carried around to numerous gigs and performances.
