I bought this beauty about 6 months ago from route 66 guitars in USA.
The only part that is not original from this guitar is the tuning head from the shop route66 already equipped with schallers, which i change after with an original gibson correct tuning head from the same era (i bought around usd350 from ebay)
So in other word, its in 99% fully original vintage guitar with pristine condition.
I would say its 9.5 from 10!
One of the best gibson ive ever played, the tone and resonance of the guitar is amazing..

Comes with an original hardshell case (handle latch is broken so i fixed it with extra bolt)
Beat up ohsc but still fulfill its duty..
