This vintage Sonex-180 is in good condition withs some cosmetic wear and dings. The electronics and parts are all original and working well aside from the truss rod cover that is from a Sonex-180 Custom model. The frets still have a good amount of height left in them and do not show significant wear. The original hardshell case is included.
