There is damage to the top, cracks, running from the tone control. Visible in one photo only and not mentioned in the listing

I think what you are seeing as cracks, is really the outline of the clear pickguard.

The guitar was for sale on another forum maybe three / four years ago, with different photos, it definitely has cracks.

You are correct, upon further inspection of the photo, I definitely see a crack from the control plate to the bridge and a crack running from the bottomSouthpawGuy wrote:The guitar was for sale on another forum maybe three / four years ago, with different photos, it definitely has cracks.
of the control plate screw down.
Too bad, this guitar was maxed out with many options. Buyer beware.
Thanks for pointing this out.

Had it not been for the damage I probably would have bought that one, a real Liberace Lefty if ever there was one

I checked our G&L Registry and found it was registered without an owner. It apparently has a four way pickup switch, too. I added a note about the cracks on the top near the control plate.

Admin note: So as to preserve this thread, I have made a copy and placed it in the G&L products (1992 to present) sub-forum.
