This guitar is in great shape overall and plays fantastic. There are light blemishes on back but none that will show in pictures. The tuning machines are quirky if you're new to firebirds but they are as easy to use as any locking tuner and are very intuitive to use - the work great!
There are two cracks, one on either side of the headstock near the nut. To me appear to be superficial and appear to be just in the finish. I've yanked on the headstock in all directions and can't seem to get them to give at all. Very stable.
Overall a great guitar and will easily please someone looking for a unique, great playing and sounding guitar at a reasonable price.
