Hello:
I'm getting ready to post a couple of ukuleles and need a little help with describing the condition of one of them. It's a white label Kamaka, 12 frets above the sound hole, in pristine codition with the exception of some under the surface checking/crazing of the finish. You can't see it unless you turn thr instrument to catch the light a ceratin way, but once you do, it's visible on the right lower and upper right bout. It's spidery in appearance, but doesn't extend to or through the surface, and cannot be felt.
Is this called crazing? I have that in mind because I know the term applies to ceramic glazes. If that's not an accurate term, please help me with a better one, so I can describe this properly.
Thanks,
- David Maron
