This page is trying to provide additional camera angles to capture different lighting for supplemental views that might show details that othr images didn't:
Notice that the only screwdriver marks and slots elongation are in the tightening direction, meaning that the screws & neck have never come out since being installed at the factory. Sawdust under every other panel also attested that nothing on this guitar had ever been opened up before since manufacture.
Also, the instrument plywood used to make the top and back of these guitars used crossed-grain lamination for strength AND so that cracking (such as being dropped) could not migrate through to the next laminate layer. We can see this in the pics above and below where the neck attachment bolts counter-sink grommets squeezed the top fine-wood veneer during installation which became more noticeable as the grain opened a little with age.
