Hi guys, I've been looking for a vintage junior double cut in Europe for quite some time. I'm interested in a player grade instrument, both because my pockets ain't too deep and also because I want a guitar that I can gig.
This one popped up recently on Reverb and I've been discussing with the owner.

Everything seems alright, no breaks, and the bridge would be quickly replaced by a mojoaxe. Extra strap button is annoying and also the shallers holes are definitely bigger than the repro tuners but all in all there seems to be no major issue with it.
Lots of discoloration and wear on the back which gives me the idea that this guitar has been gigged quite a bit but treated with care.
Price aside - which I am still discussing with the owner - what's your opinion on this one?
