I am interested in trading my Elite 1778T w/OHSC for a shallow-bowl center-holer w/hsc; 1861, 1862, or S861?  Looking for a straight-up trade; you ship yours, I ship mine...

My T came to me with a crack, as seen in the pics, caused by mishandling during shipping.  After 3 days under humidity, I sealed the crack from the inside with cyanoacrylate, as seen in the pics.  The repair worked really well, and the crack is invisible today.  This first pic is of the guitar as it is today.  The case is a bit rough on the outside, with 4-of-7 feet broken off and 2 of the remaining 3 are loose, but the interior is nice, all latches and handle are in good condition.

I'm not looking for a wall hanger.  A dent or ding here or there is okay, but the guitar should be in generally good condition.  Let me know what you have.  Prefer something other than black but that isn't a deal breaker either.

This is today

 

This is after the repair.

 

This is the inside view of the repair.

 

And this is a picture of the crack.

Hmm, I think I recognize that guitar....

That's a seamless repair! (Get it?) Well done!

This is a USA Ovation and sounds super nice! Preacher is a straight-up guy to deal with, and he's offering a great trade here.

Good luck with it!

I'd potentially be interested in buying, but don't have anything to trade...
