I can see pics fine!

Love it. I would clean it up a bit and set it up. But then just rock it as is.

I've been able to see the pics fine. that was certainly a fantastic deal. it looks like someone stripped it at some point (possibly with the intention of refinishing it??) and then played it a bunch and it just got really dirty because it was unfinished and picked up tons of grease and dirt. IMHO, you should throw some kinda finish on it, even if you just clean it up and rub it with tru-oil.

yep, you'll probably need to sand the body to get that sweaty jank off it before refinishing. neck looks amazing!
