These chrome covered humbuckers sound great and I would not replace them because they remind me very much of the Gibson humbuckers of this time period. The frets have a fair amount of wear on them, but they are still functionable. This guitar is very much ready to be played and has a unique classic rock appeal. The guitar has a couple deep scratches that do not affect the stability; one is located on the front above the volume/tone knobs, but below the bridge and the second is a deep gouge where the bolts go through the body and into the neck. You may question the back gouge as it appears to be a split right in middle of the neck pocket, but I have checked it out thoroughly and it is only superficial (see pics).
