    That crack would have me paranoid.... It might just be an opening up of a natural line in the slab sawn neck blank or it could be the harbinger of worse movement to come.

    Yes quite right, I could fix it now but I’d rather wait and see what happens. It’ll still bother me it’s there though so it will get done sooner or later.
