Not sure of the age of this guitar, but looks like someone forgot to play it, there isn't a ding scratch problem to be found, on the front there are two very tiny specks where the coating didn't set up properly, both are about the size of the tip of a pencil you really have to look to find them. The guitar was made in Italy, the Model number is HG OI, the serial number is12762, should help date it, but I couldn't find a list of dates. The guitar has a wonderful sound very bright and loud with outstanding sustain, I was really surprised, the size is a bit smaller than a standard guitar at 38" with 18 frets, perfect for the beginner, I have a chip board case I can use for shipping, pretty rough shape but will help protect it during shipping, also we back off the string tension to prevent neck damage, so will need tuning when it arrives. The guitar over all stands well above most if not all so called begginer guitars, will have a very fair start and no reserve, good luck and thanks.
