Safe in St. Pete. Neck / Finish crack is a hair above superficial but is nice and stable. 14 layers of finish and lets say enough wood to feel it all along the crack. Nothing a lil glue and clamp wont fix real easy. Plays good with the arrival strings. We'll see what new D'addarrio 11's do for it on Sunday. Porn to follow soon. The digital isn't at home right now. I have encouraged the seller to hang out on the board. I belive he really felt twing selling. Said the money wasn't the thing he just was glad a "Hamer fan" had gotten it. He metion two of ya's emailed him too. I would put you on first offers if you like but it might be awhlie. BTW, I now understand the Baby$%^# finish comments. MMMM maybe Natural!!!! Why, I got a good mind to...... Well if I'm fixing the neck ANYWAY.......
