Tech Notes: Currently set up with 10s, low action, and optimal neck relief. The frets are wide and low with light wear, but the guitar plays cleanly. This model was only produce from 1980 to 1981, and the serial number dates this guitar to 1981. There is a route in the neck pickup cavity that was done after the finish was sprayed (see pictures); this was likely done at the factory to allow for more room to adjust the neck pickup.
