Location: Denver, PA USA | Great. Glad for you. I messed mine up I guess. Opened it up to soon and now have 3 finish cracks. Man that pisses me off. I am so careful with my stuff. I thought with it being warm here today it would be OK after an hour but I guess it wasn't. |

Location: NJ | Bringing a guitar in from a 50degree environment and opening it in a 65degree environ is not gonna crack your guitar. My guitars get subjected to wider swings than that on a weekly basis and have never had a problem.
If it sat on your porch on a sub-freezing day, and you opened it in front the woodstove . . . yeah.
It was either sent that way, or it happened in shipping.
This an eBay purchase?? |

Location: Denver, PA USA | Yes ebay purchase. But I saw pictures before the sale that if it was craked I would have seen it. I didn't think after waiting an hour it would do it with that range of temps either. Unless he was able to photograph it in a way so it could not be seen. But I went to school for photography and it doesn't appear to be a weird angel at all. Either way my guitar has 3 cracks. But I will live with it. Once I take the kids to Awana at church tonight I will have 1 1/2 hours to play with her. But the little I did before she was sweet. |

Bill, good luck what ever you decide. But it was advertised as a new guitar, right? With worn frets? Don't think so. |

Location: Snellville, GA | All I can say about my purchase is swwweeeeeetttt! Absolutely no blemishes or defects besides a broken string and Al threw another pack in to cover that. The 6756 Legend LX is one beautiful guitar sound and
looks. I need to tell you I bought this through Al sight unseen and am not disappointed. This will probably be my last guitar purchase for a long time but if and when I buy another believe me Al will be my first choice for dealers. :cool: |

I took pictures of the cracks. And they don't show up on the pictures. I guess I got snookered. |
