Hi everyone, well I had a stroke a year and half ago, so been on the road to recovery, still on it! I can't play properly at all these days, right arm doesn't work same as before. My Ovation and Takamine are too big to get arm over so I got a small "Sigma" travel guitar to try on.

I went and dropped my 1868 and now it has a crack in the laquer! is this an easy fix or a big job?

Cheers for advice

Hi Craig.. glad to hear you're recovering. There are some total crack-repair-genius-types out there, so I send best wishes that the same recovery will apply to your 1868.

It's actually not just in the lacquer......looked through the back and can see straight through....... Oh well, a trip to the luthier then...
