The neck is smooth with a couple minor blemishes.

Tech Notes: Plays well with low action, and is currently set up with 10s. The bass side of the neck is very straight even with the truss rod fully loosened, but the guitar plays cleanly and sets up well. The pot codes, heel stamp, and serial number all date to 1971.
