It comes with an original 56/57 Tweed case with red lining. The Tweed Fabric is slightly separated from the casewood as it was once oversprayed in black, but now restored by removal of colour into Original Tweed Tan.

The guitar is original besides a pro refret with replaced nut and a thin old overspray on fingerboard and front of headstock. All others blacklight perfect.
