I love almost everything about my 1993 Special FM, the way it looks, feels and plays. The one nit I can pick is that it's a little neck-heavy. It's not like it's a divining rod or anything (or even a Firebird), but it does tend to tilt about 15 degrees below horizontal hands-free.
Two questions: 1) Is this a trait of all Specials or do I have an oddball here (it's the only Special I've owned)? 2) Is there anything I can do to rectify the imbalance short of relocating the strap buttons or tying helium balloons to the headstock?

Any and all help greatly appreciated...
