Hi, I have recently purchased a 1912 CF Martin sn 3433 and I need it looked at by a luthier. I live in the Southern MD area - any suggestions? It looks to have wear on the front under the strings and near the pick guard. It also has a crack - its closed on the front and I can't tell if it's through. It sounds very nice and I've order light gauge strings - it came with light gauge but they look old. There is a buzz on the b note (4th fret, 4th string) but all other notes ring clear. The bowl back looks intact and the neck is straight. I want to preserve and play this for years to come.
Thank you,
Terry
