With you. Supports my own experience locally as well.
I hear what you say, but you just have to look for the good ones, ask lost of searching questions, ask for photos. If they wont oblige or it doesn't quite stack up, dont buy. Simple as that. All mine are beauties. The only one I had to do much work on was the 140 that had a high action. But contrary to the neck reset fascination/phobia on AGF, I just took the saddle and bridge down (you can easily lose around 4mm), fitted a bridge doctor (that as a byproduct actually improved the tone even more!) and its perfectly fine. No need for neck resets most of the time.
