Bass side top crack :: 1997 Santa Cruz 000

The treble side top crack running from the high e to the tail was repaired.  Now it's time for the bass side crack running from the A string bridge pin hole to the tail.  This crack was repaired before by another repair person, then repaired by myself using the standard cleating method (small rectangular cleats).  Since this guitar is exposed to less-than-ideal conditions, I'm removing the old cleats and re-repairing this crack with TJ Thompson's full cleat method.
