    Is this a construction defect in the neck/body? Used SE Hollowbody II Piezo purchase

    Just to follow up on this, I sent photos and the serial number to PRS. They confirmed that the neck pocket is indeed within spec. Since I've decided to keep it I have changed strings, adjusted the bridge and pickup height, and it's much better! I'm still getting used to it, but am optimistic...

    Is this a construction defect in the neck/body? Used SE Hollowbody II Piezo purchase

    Thanks everyone for the excellent advice and feedback.

    Is this a construction defect in the neck/body? Used SE Hollowbody II Piezo purchase
