Default Re: Vintage Guitar Research

Tried out this guitar and despite some condition issues (and aged strings), it produces a nice mellow sound. The major issue is the bridge, which had been poorly re-glued is lifted/separated...due to the strings never being loosened. However, this occurrence appears to have saved the neck. The neck is straight, but could use a slight adjustment. Don't know if a truss rod was used in these guitars anyway, and I saw a wood block in the interior -where the neck is attached to the body. I'm thinking no truss rod - the weight of the guitar is very light.
