Yeah, I may not. With old guitars my motto is do no harm. The bridge was shaved as low as possible, the saddle is pretty short, all done before I got it.

This was the last guitar my buddy Frank Moats sold, he owned Atlanta Vintage Guitars. Next day he went into hospice, couple days after that he left us.

If I did a proper neck reset, it'd would really need frets and maybe a new bridge since it's been shaved. I don't have the time or inclination, I've done two neck resets in my life, both went well, but they were stressful for sure. I'm just not up to it.

It may have to stay as is, it plays ok, maybe I'll learn slide.
