Re: Vintage Gibson As
They all have neck reinforcement. All snakeheads, but for the Ajr, have adjustable truss rods. Pre-'20, I'm not aware of any that have adjustable truss rods - even in the F2 and F4 models.
I have no issues with the neck on my A3 (1920). It's not adjustable.
Also, it was only in Loar's time that the mandolins came with an adjustable saddle. My A3 is a one-piece bridge and it's original.
