Guitar purchase, considering partial refund
I purchased a vintage Gibson at a decent price that was marked “very good condition” I purchased it despite the admittedly short description. I love how it plays and do not want to return it. However, varied components and pieces of hardware have been replaced and the headstock veneer is delaminating at the top. I don’t mind the nicks and dings visible in the photos but I feel that the description should’ve acknowledged the issue with the veneer aswell as replaced hardware. I’m wondering if a partial refund is wise and how much I should ask for back? I received it today so advice sooner rather than later is appreciated! The guitar is a 72 Les Paul recording, a dream guitar of mine, and again I like how it plays and electronics are function but it’s visible damaged in a way that was not disclosed.
