Hey all. Just purchased a sadowsky jh which I adore, but I noticed the binding in the back of the neck has separated. The guitar is from the mid 2000s. Maybe I’m making a mountain of a mole hill but I’d love some advice as I am in my return window.
1. Does this significantly diminish the value of the instrument?
2. Is it an expensive fix?
3. Does it indicate problems with the neck?
Included the sides as well if anyone cares though I don’t see a problem.
Thanks!

It would be just the heal cap is come up or the neck is pulling up a bit. No way to tell without seeing the guitar. I am not a fan of these guitars although many like them so I would send it back just to be sure.

It looks like the heel cap has separated slightly. That's not structural, and should be easy to fix. But as Mark said, it's possible the neck is moving a little, and I can't tell about that from the photos.

Thanks so much for your replies. I took it in on your recommendation and the verdict from the shop is that it does need a neck reset. What a disappointment, but bullet dodged.
