oh jeez.....much ado about nothing if you ask me. If people want to return new guitars becuz of cracks like this I don't blame them. But virtually every painted Gibson gets these at some point in their life. Look an an LPC that is years old. Those type finish cracks will be all up and don the...
Seriously?
You can't find the contact seller option? Or try the email address your paypal payment went to? None of this is hidden.
