Vintage Aria Dreadnought 000 Sized Acoustic Guitar Model AF-280BS

Description

This is a beautiful guitar, lovely sound, nice action, low profile comfortable C shaped neck.
Condition: This guitar has a few scratches, dings, some paint transfer on the side a few chips of finish and a finish crack on the top along the treble side of the fretboard extension. I took the guitar in to have it looked over and it was confirmed at that time that the crack I saw was in the finish only and was not a wood crack. See photos 8 and 10 for most notable mentions.
The guitar has a lovely sunburst finish, X braced and really has a great response and tone. The nut and saddle look like micarta to me. Tuners work nicely and hold tune well. I tried to include as many photos as possible, so please look them over and let me know if you have questions. Once tuned up, this guitar will be ready to play right out of the box.
I am open to offers if you don't like the price, please feel free to make one.
Shipping will be UPS ground, fully insured. I do not have a suitable case, but will package the guitar nicely for safe travel. This listing is for a beautiful Yamaha S-50A Nippon Gakki vintage acoustic guitar, made in Japan between 1969-1972. In decent physical condition for its age, has some surface scratches all around and one quarter-sized blemish on the bottom (please see photos). This is a 50+ year old guitar so the mechanics up top will need some work (it is not holding a tune for very long).
Local pickup only (Santa Barbara, California). Ideal for those who live in Los Angeles or central coast California.
Feel free to message me anytime if you have any questions or would like to see any additional photos. I am always happy to help!
