Hello Music Man forum members,
I got a brandnew Luke III fuchsia. The strings were not centered to the fingerboard at first, so my guitar dealer checked the neck alignment. The strings run quite centered now as far as I can see (see photo).
However, the neck-body transition is still not flush (see photo). I checked my other electric guitars with bolt-on necks (Fender, Charvel) - all neck-body transitions are completely flush and smooth. I checked many other guitars in my guitar shop, even Music Man Lukes, all neck-body transitions were completely flush and smooth.
I know I'm being nitpicky, but on a guitar in this price range, I would expect the neck-body transition to be perfectly flush. It probably doesn't affect playing, but it just looks like it doesn't quite fit. Or is it just a matter of adjustment?
What’s your opinion about that? Do you have any advice?
