"2) There are two hairline cracks in the body due to being packed with a strap pressed into it in the case. These could be easily repaired by any technician, but the current owner has left them for the last two years and had no complaints about sound. See pics."
Don't know... But he is Stupid and a Lair.
One, he is stupid for busting his top that way... And ruining an Elite T-12.
Two, he is lying if he says that that doesn't affect the sound, and it can be easily fixed. :eek: |

Location: SoCal | You guys are fast to condemm on a couple of pics. This guitar is a "I want to have somebody nearby look at it before I buy it" guitar. If I were buying, I'd be careful and want more information.
This is the only guitar he has for sale. Before I say he's a liar, I'd say he might be ignorant. I've seen a lot of ebay sellers who just didn't have the experience with a product to really describe it well.
Let's not be so fast to pass judgment...... |

Location: SoCal | You guys are like sharks smelling blood in the water. Why don't one of you ask for better pics. Then you'll know whether or not you should actually be smart asses. Maybe you should be, but you don't really know from the pictures posted.
Nah. Just leave it alone. You are all obviously much smarter then the seller. Or do you like sounding like the AGF? |

Those pics probably don't really show what's really going on. The camera does add 10# and all so perhaps the lighting was bad and that'll buff right out. And, like he said you can barely notice that custom nut filing with your eyes closed, lights out or back turned.
I'll see if there's any more detailed pics available.
BTW, what's an "AGF"? I know it ain't good though and I probably don't wanna sound like one based on the tenor of your post... |

Moody's right guys, not everyone lives in our guitar geek world. |

Yes

They are basically an Elite LX 12 string and very worthy instruments.
AGF is the Acoustic Guitar Forum - Tough Crowd... |
