This is just gorgeous. What a lovely piece of veneer, beautifully executed.

I, too, think the bridge looks just fine, and if it were me, I'd not return it for that alone.

Neck carve/shape might be a different issue - but out of all the dozens of guitars I've owned over the years, there has only be one that I have let go just for that reason. My left hand seems to be curiously agnostic to curves shallow or deep, C-shaped, D-shaped, V-shaped or otherwise, and nut widths from 1 3/16" to 1 7/8" in the current collection - but there was a Godin 5th Avenue that I just could not abide. Eventually I realized that it was the profile of the fingerboard shoulders that made it awkward for me.

Regardless, it's your guitar, and a significant investment, especially with all the custom stuff. Oh - and it's GORGEOUS!
