Perfect.The neck is gorgeously figured and tastefully worn in.  There is an era appropriate cigarette burn near where the E string leaves the nut.All original parts with 1966 neck, pickup and pot dates.  No bridge or pickup cover.  No extra holes, routes, or finish touch ups.  The pickup is slightly microphonic, something that is common in this era.Solders on the surface of the pots look like they might have been touched up but those on the output jack and pot legs look original.  The truss rod has room for future neck relief adjustments - something we always check.  The bass sets up perfectly!Original hard case included.Mahar's Vintage Guitars is a brick-and-mortar and web-based retailer.
