Good morning Sam,

Thanks for getting back to us.

We try and do our best to make our listing fair and honest regarding 
condition.

If we can help you try and move on any of your guitars please let us 
know. We are happy to look at any trade in possibilities. You mentioned 
a possible crafter?

Kind Regards,
Harriet, Phil & Tim
Express Music
