Man! Look at the Dust-Bunnies inside this thing... Ever hear of a vacuum cleaner?


Remember... This is what it looked like in the listing when I won it... [link]


And this is what it looks like after a bath...


The crack is still there, it just ain't that bad. It is just on the surface. Also, the previous owner musta played Bluegrass... Cuz there were three shims under the saddle. The strings were brown with crud. But after a coupla hours of scrubbing, some new strings, it is a nice guitar. Hey! The battery still had some juice!

I just wanted to share this... Y'know, Brag!

I think I'm done buying guitars for the month... :rolleyes:

Those are nice guitars OMA. Looks to be in good shape after the "Aurthurizing". :D
Best of luck with it!

Glad the 1718 only has a surface crack, Arthur. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoy mine.
