The problem with CA in the hands of noobs (not intended to be an offensive word) is that it often times leads to disaster. Titebond says that 10% dilution is perfectly fine with their product. I don't know that you even need to dilute it though if as the OP says there is movement in the back. You can douse it with a lot of Titebond and then 'pump' it into the crack by moving the back in and out. The diluted TB would help but may not be necessary. IMO strength is not imperative on that joint anyway. I don't have the guitar in my hands so I cannot say for sure but those are just some of my thoughts.
I agree CA is an excellent choice but I'm not so sure it is in the hands of a fist time DIY project.
