What model is it? Pacemaker? GC 12? Custom Legend? Tops are easy to get fixed thru the factory.

What kind of crack, finish, or a serious one through the wood? If everything else about the instrument is OK, I can't imagine it wouldn't be worth $200. Regardless of the model. Hows it look? Well taken care of? I just bought one for just about that amount of money (without a case). All of the mediating conditions MAster Moody mentions would only add value to the guitar. Sooooo. Let us know how it sounds.
