Rating Definition:

Very good with 85% of the original finish. Displaying general handling marks, clear markings, and light spotting on the barrels. The aluminum frame shows some areas of high point and edge wear, general handling marks, and fine engraving. The wood is very fine with attractive grain, well defined checkering, and light handling marks. Mechanically very good. The case is fine with some age cracks in the straps, general storage and handling marks, and some scuffs.
