Andy would definitely sort out any imperfections and set it up how you want it, he’s had that one for a while now so I’d say there’s some wiggle room, in my opinion Rob it’s a bit pricey for a 71
Looks like it could be sonic blue which as you say would be a 60s colour, don’t think I’ve seen a 70s one in that colour, and with a maple board, looks pretty cool
I’ve got a couple of those and they are pretty good, they hold your bass and stop it sliding,which mine did once, I used mine with markbass cabs which they stick to really good but they would also wrap around the handle if your cab was raised
