Ok..I have a couple of old guitars that I'd like to save.... One seems as if the back is a little bit seperated from the body. Their is also a crack in the front bottom of the guitar and various other little niches..

I'd really like a cheap alternative to fix these guitars. They are classicals and I'd like to repair them for sentimental value.

Is their some kind of glue crack conceler that could work?...Another thing - Is their anything that can restore the polish on a guitar?...thanks!

Jet.

I could get creqtive with elmers wood glue. Take your time use only what you need to fill or seal the crack. polish and wax's you can get at any music store.

So..just fill in the crack with the wood glue.. K cool!

and for the polish..or wax...if I put that on the wood guitar - would it be ok? I thought that putting waxes on guitars (wood) are not good?...any recommendations on a good one?

Most any music stores has wax. A non-abrasive wax is what you want.

Hey Joe,

Got anything for an old guitarist with a couple of wrinkles? :D

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.
Did you know that the word "gullible" is not in any dictionary?
