Sound Pure's Take
Condition: Used, Excellent
SP Luthier Notes: The height of a fret caused significant buzzing when played, and it was leveled with the rest of the frets. The truss rod and bridge required only and were adjusted to, a small degree. At least half of the frets were polished, recrowned and leveled. No further work was required.
