If it goes low enough, I will but I've already got one! It is (fairly) close to me though - about 2 - 2 1/2 hrs...

I placed a few bids, but I don't have the bucks to really compete for this one.. I don't see any scratches on it though, so it might be a good one to send to factory for a little tweeking...

The case isn't original and doesn't look like it fits the instrument well, so a pickup would be ideal.

I am curious, however, I don't remember my 1537 having plugs in the bridge. Has the bridge been reattached?

Be nice to know if the floating fretboard has been glued down too as it looks really close to the top...but not a good enough angle to tell.

Looks like he took the pics in the back seat of a pickup truck.

I dunno, a horizontal finish crack north of the bridge would worry me more than a vertical one. I've seen lots of finish cracks on O's, but I dont recall ever seeing a horizontal one, always vertical. Seller claims it doesn't affect the git, but I'd have to see it personally. I would think a horizontal finish crack in that position might result from stress due to the start of top collapse/brace failure.
