The block inlays on the bound rosewood fingerboard are correct for post-1973 production. Grover tuners are original. The original Hummingbird design pickguard is intact and correct. The cherry sunburst finish is original and in good overall condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThere is a top crack repair, visible in the photos. The repair has been completed and the top is structurally sound, but the crack and the repair are both visible and are priced into this instrument accordingly. The back and sides are clean with no repairs. The neck is a medium C profile at .851\" at the first fret and .969\" at the ninth, with a 12\" radius rosewood fingerboard.  Action is set at 2\/32\" on the treble string and 3\/32\" on the bass string at the twelfth fret. At 4 lbs 15 oz this is a light instrument for its body size. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAn original Gibson hardshell case is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"product-spec-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eWeight: 4lbs 15oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eColor: Cherry Sunburst\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eFinish Original?: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eFinish Condition: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eTop Material: spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eTop Condition: Very good\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eTop Cracks: yes (1)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eTop Repairs: crack repair, see pics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eTop Binding: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eTop Binding Condition: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eBracing Material: spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eBracing Condition: Excellent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"product-spec\"\u003eBack \u0026amp;
