my 61 sg standard has a dark check just like that on the heel, i have never figured out if its a hairline crack or a finish check. it was however a bargaining chip when i bought the guitar.
it will also be an advantage for the next buyer.
its a good point that this goldtop has the tuneomatic bridge. my last 56 i got is real clean a few years back for 25k. would i sell it for 40? no. but i,m in it for the long haul
I suppose if the guitar gets sold via photos, there's that chance. If it's sold in person, it's pretty clear that it's not a crack. I'd likely take a lot of close up, macro photo from several angles to show it.
