The neck has a comfortable mid '60s profile and the electronics are simple with just one single coil pickup in the bridge position and single volume and tone controls. These were produced in parallel with the Gibson Melody Makers of the time, sharing most of the same specs. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar shows normal cosmetic wear for a vintage instrument that includes various surface scratches, scuffs, dents, and finish chips\/wear throughout the body with additional dings along the back of the neck and headstock. The body also shows plenty of checking all throughout and the hardware shows normal tarnishing from over the years. There's also evidence of stickers that had been placed on the body at one point in time and had since been removed. The frets exhibit normal play wear but otherwise still play great along the neck and the electronics work as they should. The neck is straight with plenty of room for the truss rod to turn in both directions. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar retains its original pickup and has had the electronics serviced with a newer output jack and pots. The tuners, pickguard, Maestro tremolo arm, bridge and strap buttons are also later replacements. This guitar is otherwise original, and free from any cracks\/repairs\/ect.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePickup Readings:\u003cbr\u003eBridge: 6.1k ohms\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar comes freshly set up with D'addario EXL110 (10-46) strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncludes the pictured gig bag. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMake: Epiphone\u003cbr\u003eModel: Olympic Special\u003cbr\u003eYear: 1967\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Material: Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Radius: 12\"\u003cbr\u003eScale length: 24.75\"\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 6.66 pounds\u003cbr\u003eNut Width: 1.58\"\u003cbr\u003eNeck Width at 12th fret: 2.01\"\u003cbr\u003eNeck Thickness at 1st fret: 0.81\"\u003cbr\u003eNeck Thickness at 12th fret: 1.02\"\u003cbr\u003eCase\/bag: Includes the pictured gig bag\u003cbr\u003eMade in United States\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have shipped hundreds of instruments and other music related items and can assure you that your new gear will be packed professionally with the utmost care, using high quality materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease see pictures for exact condition and details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you have any questions please let us know.
