Tech Notes: The guitar plays well with low action and optimal neck relief, and is currently set up with 10s. The saddle is very low and so downward adjustability is limited, but the guitar plays cleanly and comfortably. The frets are moderately low, with notable divots under the treble strings up to the 9th fret; there is minor wear under the bass strings. The serial number dates the guitar to 1969.
