Oof! Either something really heavy fell directly on that control knob or a fork lift blade went through the shipping box and case, and into the guitar.

It is actually listed at $1300+ as a parts guitar.

It is suspect as that kind of damage almost looks intentional....what ever the owner did...
It wasn't the guitar's fault

Oof, makes me wonder if you could patch it up? Cut out a piece of the top and reinstall a thin replacement, or just smash open the top of the bout and make symmetrical f holes :)

I think CRS syndrome is rampant on LTG -- I include myself in that.

I figured out CRS but it took me a moment. As a Moderator I have an obligation to read everything that is posted and there is stuff I can't recall. But I have noticed a lot of the duplicate posts are not necessarily a problem with someone's memory. In particular not everyone reads everything and not everyone thinks a post belongs in the same place. For example, an interesting video interview with an acoustic player could be in Misc., Acoustics or From the Stage. There are also duplicates because some things are just hard to find on LTG with basic search tools.

What is CRS, Uke? I presumed you were joking about my memory, but is that what you meant?

Too subtle, I guess :)

"Can't Remember Sh*T". Not so much you personally, but I think it is a systemic thing. Seems like a good number of us are "of riper years."
Should I add that to the FAQ/Glossary?? :D
That might be a good idea -- if you can remember to do it. ;)

Maybe he was swapping in different pups and wanted better cavity access?

Nothing about a quart of Bondo can't fix...
