I made this baritone guitar out of a Michael Kelly Club Custom 4N with a few miles on it. There are a few dings on the top and some small dents that I believe were made with a pick. There is also a very fine crack in the finish where the two halves of the top come together. The bass was shipped to me with the strings tight and the bridge lifted slightly. I clamped and glued the bridge back down solid and the process I use to make the guitar a 6 string further strengthens the bridge so I doubt it will ever be a problem. The finish around the bridge did crack though and I have de-emphasized that. None of these cosmetic issues is even visible without examining the guitar very closely and in reflection but I do feel then need to be mentioned. Those things aside, this is one gorgeous, sweet sounding, and easy playing guitar. The owners of the others I have made love them and so far this particular model gets a lot of positive feedback. I am selling this guitar with no case on eBay for $550. At this moment I do have a used hard case available for purchase with this guitar for an additional $75 (US
