Resale value isn't a variable in this. But, since Cedar is such a soft wood, I worry that the crack, even repaired, could cause longevity issues? After some research, it doesn't seem like tone is a factor in a problem like this though. I hear really great things about Webber, and for finger style, I hear he make some of the best.

My other choice is a Breedlove MasterClass OOO-12, Adi T/Mah BS. 25.5" scale. I'm a finger picker. I've already got a BL Revivial Adi/RS Custom OM that is to die for, hence my leaning towards another BL.

Thoughts?

Far too high. Assuming a stable repair probably around $4-5 less. Make an offer.
