Re-neck, IMO. Things were hectic at Gibson in 67 and weird stuff occurred but that serial is not OK. It was stamped off center and it was done one number at a time by eye which is why the digits don't line up. That also explains the big heel. Like to see a photo of the neck pickup route. That'll show a re-neck.
So you're saying it was customary for Gibson to re-neck a guitar at the factory, then stamp the S/N, off center, one number at a time, by eye?
