Nice guitar, but a huge red flag with the cracking around the input jack.

Yeah I thought that also but it could be fixed and with a low buy price it would be worth it.

Nice guitar, and what looks like an original case. Newer grover tuners... I'm sure someone will snipe her and be happy!

Hi, I’m selling the MC300 and I was just curious about the comment made above concerning the jack plate cracking. This is superficial at worst. The cracking is in the glaze and has zero effect on playability.

Maybe someone could explain why this is a ‘huge red flag’ if it is? This guitar will not be hanging in the Smithsonian but it is surely in the top 10% of all the other MC guitars I have seen on Ebay. The short list of reasons I am selling this guitar did not include the cracking around the jack plate I assure you.

Hi CP -

This is a chronic problem with Musicians. The top layer is fairly thin, and is prone to cracking around the jack. Generally the result of using straight plugs, rather than right-angle. Many have brass plates installed to cover the damage, or Strat-style recessed jacks because of the broken area.

When I bought mine there were surface cracks, so I had the area reinforced from the inside.

Wow, sold for a modest price of 355. What a great guitar to purchase at 355 dollars! I absolutely love my MC400. I'm sure whoever picked this baby up will be extremely pleased.
