I’m no expert, I’m sure someone more qualified will be along soon, It’s looking like a 75 to me, I think they changed the serial number layout on the headstock in 76, there’s some info here
Your only talking about 1.5mm difference, I would fit the neck and slide in a few strips of wood veneer either side for stability and to fill the gap’s, you could glue them to either side of the neck pocket if you wanted and they could be removed if ever you needed
Thanks for that 👍, and yeah your right it is a bit cheesy, it’s kind of growing on me, I met him and all the band at the O2 a few years ago, really nice people 🙂
Thanks kevham, I haven’t had a proper play yet, that’s tomorrow, I know it’s VVT, are the controls different in active mode as the tone has a stack knob 🙂
