Try and use 'light superficial wear to the top surface of the finish' for very clean
Gloss finish is in very good condition with little signs of use, but brass hardware shows light/heavy signs of wear/fade/oxidization etc
compression buckle wear on the rear of the body, but no wear that shows the wood etc
Light dings, nicks etc
haze of oxidization on the nickel hardware etc - LIght wear on the gold plated hardware
pics are always best to support such statements - many times the camera won't pick-up light superficial wear
Just be as honest as you can - don't sell mutton as lamb
If it's Gumtree or a site where the buyer decides at the point of sale, all you've done is wasted his and your time by poorly describing it.
If its Ebay, it's a different kettle of fish. Your description has to be super accurate to avoid returns/complaints and all the nonsense that follows an Ebay sale. Anything less than a full and frank disclosure on condition/issues opens you up to a world of pain.
Advice - Never use Ebay to sell.
I think you have to describe your guitar in terms that a buyer would understand. Best just be factual and not to use any terms that could be misconstrued.
