now the most important question...

acoustic or electric?

for electrics most place will charge about RM50...acoustics there could be other problems involved.

that is not beyond repair.

since you say its a clean crack...
if you're confident, go get some proper wood glue.
just pour it in and wipe off any excess.
then you might have to clamp it so it lays flat.
then let it dry for about 2-3 days.

else i think tham in PJ should be able to do it, his number is somewhere in here, go search tongue.gif

what you did to custom it?
and that crack behind the first fret is pretty common problem.
due to a combo of pencil thin necks and overtighten of locking nut.

the edward listed above your post can refinish too.
i just had one of mine refinished to black using nitro cellulose.
price depends on your guitar and where you want.
best you call him.
