hi, long time reader, first time poster here.
I know pricing discussions are taboo here, but is there an exception for used guitars?? mods, if this isn't kosher please feel free to edit/delete.
anyway, i spy a 1970 gibson j40 on ebay.... i've been looking at gibson dreads because i play a combination of fingerstyle and heavy strumming and only can handle having one acoustic at this time (though i was leaning toward slope-shouldered geets). anyway, the guitar looks great, but the action is a little high (undisclosed reason) and the seller says there is a bulge behind the bridge (looks pretty slight). I had a similar problem with my old red label yamaha fg300 that i sold for playability concerns.
here's a link to the listing:

i understand of course if it's a screaming deal, someone on this site may well grab it before me.... but come on, be cool!
any knowledge you guys care to bestow?
