Yes, not an expensive instrument. Looks like a mahogany top and mahogany is prone to cracking on old instruments. If the braces are still glued to the top, look inside with a mirror and light, then I would fill the cracks with wood and glue it in and not try to close the crack. It could still be a playable instrument. Be sure to use light strings on any instrument of this type of construction.
