If I were lucky enough to have the spare cash to buy one of these, I would not be the slightest bit concerned about whether the string tree was "correctly" placed or out by a quarter inch! I'll bet it is still fitted by hand, exactly as it was done back then, and there will be small variations in placement, and that in itself is period correct!http://www.fender.com/community/forums/posting.php?mode=quote&f=14&p=827235#
