Is that a long crack parallel to the top of the fretboard? Can you take a closeup of that area?

that looks to me like a reflection of the fretboard/binding/frets...

Actually, that's just over 1/8" - 5/32". not very high at all in my estimation. 5/64 would be just over 1/16".

If you measure it from the top of the fret, it's even less.

It's not that the height makes it unplayable, it's that the intonation starts going way out above the 5th fret because of the excess travel required to fret the strings.

It looks way high in this pic. Hard to be sure at that angle, though.

Yes it does and those strings look like 12-53 lights, not a good sign, especially if that's the way it was strung for most if not all of its life.

Yes I can confirm that's a reflection, but given the still questionable action height (not properly measured yet), @dreadnut I suggest it needs a neck alignment check:

No crack.

Just re-measured the action, it is exactly 3/32" (6/64") from the top of the 12th fret to the bottom of the string.

Thanks dread... you're helping us to evaluate....

What does the TPB on the label stand for?

 

[dreadnut]

Transparent Blue? Hard to guess what Guild was thinking sometimes...

 

[GAD]

Yup. TPR is red, etc.

If no one here wants it by tomorrow, I am going to list it elsewhere. Of course the LTG member offer will still stand.

 

[D30Man]

It’s a pretty one DN! Good luck sir!
