Taylor GS7
Have an opportunity to buy a GS7 for xxxx.
No es perfect shape except a 1.5 inch finish crack in the back middle. How big of a deal is it if it is not in the wood, just the finish? Last edited by rlouie; 12-24-2009 at 10:17 AM. Reason: no price discussion rule |

Good price, but I would carefully inspect inside for structural probs, such as loosened bracing.. that finish crack could be a sign of previous swelling (over humidification), but not necessarily.
Hard question to address without seeing the crack. Good luck.. sounds like it could be a nice deal.

The crack won't effect the sound, but like the last guy said, you have to ask why a finish crack in an otherwise perfect guitar - is there other damage that is less apparent? Also, are you sure it's just in the finish (many guitar cracks are worse than advertised) This is why a crack is pretty much the kiss of death on resale value of an instrument. You have to ask yourself if it is really worth it for about $200 savings? For me that's not a good deal, but that's your call.
