Location: Caribou, ME | A hundred bucks or so on ebay. It has the standard issue top crack which closes up nicely. I'll wait and let it stabilize at the house before I do anything. There was a chip of outer binding broken out of the upper bout on the bass side, which I repaired last night, grafted in a little piece of white binding with Duco cement and super glue. I shaved and filed it this morning and dabbed a touch of clear lacquer on it.
The neck had too much relief which I tweaked last night. The fingerboard has a thick layer of finger grunge. I'll clean that up when I repair the crack.
I can't give a final assessment until it's used to my house, the top repaired, and new strings, but one thing that has stood out thus far is how LOUD it is.
