Tech Notes: Both necks play well with low action and optimal neck relief; the frets are wide and medium height with light wear. Both one piece mahogany necks have no volutes or "Made In USA" stamps, meaning that body was probably made before 1969, but all untouched and original electronics with 1972 pot dates suggest guitar was finally assembled in 1972.
