GIBSON DOVE

I have a gibson dove, end 60ties; there is a triangular crack on the lower segment of the guitartop, IS THERE SOMEONE WHO KNOWS WHAT A REPAIR SHOULD COST?
The guitar has still a beautiful tone, but the esthetics:::::===

Re: GIBSON DOVE

Personally, I would not do a "full" repair. No affect on the sound = a guitar with some personality.

Re: GIBSON DOVE

If it aint broke, don`t fix it. It still plays and sounds good. Leave it alone. My Gibson has a crack near the soundhole. It still sounds and plays good. It will stay that way.
