Just got this guitar from a friend at zero cost!
Realised that it had quite a couple of problems! The neck broke and was fixed (quite badly, in my opinion). Body wash refinished as well…and the pancakes are falling apart on some parts of the body
I was horrified to see the state of the truss Rod cavity
The neck repair was done with some reinforcement metal plates, which can be seen in that picture of the truss Rod cavity
I just wanted to politely find out from the experienced luthiers on this forum, what would they do, and if this is salvageable.
The guitar sounds really awesome though
Here’s a link to the pictures I took of the guitar
