Fabulous GS Mini with spruce top & sapele back and sides, ebony fingerboard. Mint condition, with one small hairline crack (see photo) which doesn't affect the guitar. Professionally set up & fitted with Ernie Ball Aluminium bronze .12 gauge strings. Excellent padded Taylor gig bag in A1 condition too. Bought this as a travel guitar, but I'm not travelling much and need to thin out my collection. This is such a good guitar, really easy to play and despite its size makes a very full-bodied, sweet and resonant sound. R8,500 o.n.o. List price in CT is R11,300, so grab yourself a bargain ! If you're interested, message me privately if possible. Located on the Atlantic Seaboard in CT. Thanks for looking.
    I'm struggling to see this crack.
    Is it that tiny mark running with the grain right up against where the binding would usually be?

    Or is it that light line that runs across the grain about 2 cm from the purfling at the bottom?
      Hi - thanks for asking. It is primarily the light mark running across the grain a couple of mm short of the purfling. It may just be a scratch rather than a crack, I'm calling it a crack as I wouldn't want to mislead anyone. The tiny crack on the purfling itself that you have spotted is just a shallow, 2mm short crack. To be honest, I am ultra-careful with my guitars, so I have no idea how this happened. None of my guitars has any damage other than normal light (surface) playing marks. But we have recently acquired a dog.....and he can be a little boisterous at times ! Hope that helps.
