Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR		I got a bunch of circular cracks in the back of the Deep Bowl...
Has anyone seen anything like this before?

The image ain't that great, but if you can see the cracks across the middle of the bowl,
The cracks continue into the shadow of the lower bowl.
There are some cracks in the front, too...
I filled them with Elmer's Wood Glue, so I don't think they are moving...

All-in-all, This sounds nice, but looks terrible.
I was just wondering if anyone had seen a crack pattern like that before.
Did someone sit on it or what? :confused:

Location: Phoenix AZ		Yes I have seen some cracks like that before. Probably the guitar got "squeezed" at some point. To the credit of how these are built, I bet it still plays and sounds nice. Dave

I didn't buy this sight-unseen. I looked at it, and said it was Junk. Then I played it and Bought it.
It still is Ugly, but that gives it Character.
Also, people won't go outta their way to steal it.

We need to crack down on extraneous humor here.

Can't do that T&B... That would knock my post count down to about 10!
