...a last desperate attempt to extend the life of an old guitar for a little bit, or a bona fide way of getting more mileage out of a guitar?
Nothing New Music have offered me an F-50 and given me a fairly honest assessment of the guitar, saying that a neck set is "about due", while the top is dead flat and the bridge secure.
I'm wondering if a neck reset is something to be avoided at all costs (leaving aside the cost for a moment), or is it an act of restoration that will give a guitar a new lease of life. Lots of sellers state "no neck reset" as if this were something desirable, when it could simply mean "there's bugger all saddle left".
As always, thanks for your opinions, sarky comments and excursions
