Buying Guide

• 1Check the neck angle by looking at the action (string height) at the 12th fret. High action may indicate the top has bellied or the neck needs a reset.
• 2Inspect the bridge for lifting — even a small gap between the bridge and the top is a significant repair.
• 3Tap the top gently — a well-seasoned acoustic top will sound resonant and lively, not dead or muted.
