Hello
I just noticed these cracks last week. They seem to be running down the bindings and other places from the neck joint area. Note Chip on scroll side of neck and lacquer crack up the other side running down the riser toward the point. The finish is cracking on the scroll side, between the top and scroll block around the scroll, with an additional finish check parallel to the fingerboard extension on the top.
IS it safe to play?
