I purchased this new about a year ago and used it several times in live performances. While there is some wear and tear, there are no malfunctions or major scratches, and it plays without any problems. (There are some scratches on the pickguard from use. There is some slight rust on the frets.) The color is Italian Green, which I think looks great on stage. It comes with a hard case, but the handle is broken.
