Jinder Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 That’s a beauty at a killer price. I could live with the battlescars as I’d be using it for a gigging workhorse...thanks for the heads up! Am watching it and will keep a close eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blindboygrunt Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Yet another example of how NOT to photograph a guitar for sale. Yes. Isn’t it funny how guitars with issues are always owned by folk with shitty cameras You don’t need to worry about me sniping in to buy this one jinder All yours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinder Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Yes. Isn’t it funny how guitars with issues are always owned by folk with shitty cameras You don’t need to worry about me sniping in to buy this one jinder All yours I’d definitely want to see it in person before parting with any hard-earned...I think the dent in the lower bout is just cosmetic but I wouldn’t buy a guitar with top cracks. A headstock repair or neck reset (if done well) wouldn’t put me off, but the idea of chasing a bunch of cracks around with cleats is a nightmare to my mind!

Jinder Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I’m not convinced, John...think I’ll let this one slide as bids are already north of £800 and is likely to go well beyond my budget. As you alluded to, life’s too short to go chasing cracks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
