I'm sure you don't really mean you need to remove the frets to level them.
Looks like they been levelled but not crowned. Perhaps there isn't enough fret remaining to crown? I have a 80's guitar with the same issue.
Obviously if you had a re-fret you would lose your nibs. That might be a concern.
I am about imperfections of the fretboard/fingerboard itself. Frets will be crowned in next week or so

I think the offset centres are fine. Nice looking guitar from what I can see. Ebony FB by the looks of it.
What's the other problem? Looks like some frets need crowning.
Yes. Good shape for her age

Fretboard needs levelling. You can see it on the first and second photo, but to do that I need to remove frets and I don’t won’t to as current frets still have some “meat”.

I don't think I've ever seen, or at least, noticed that myself.
Can you please explain me sgt. pepper message? I don't get it. It is a joke or some kind of guitar maker slang 🙂

This is a true historic collection. I have similar model. Sadly with huge QC issue..

Hello.
Is it common to have inlay not perfectly centered between frets for old instruments? I have an LP custom historic collection 1993 with block inlays not centered between frets.
Other issue is fretboard itself.
Never noticed that before.
Thank you

Look at the first and second photo. I don’t know if it like that from the factory or someone tried to remove something and took out some edges. I tend to think this is from the factory because it is minimal....
I need a second "pair of the eyes" as we say here 🙂
