NGD and OCD - hairline crack opinion wanted

Just picked up this beauty on the right:

My OCD is kicking in and I notice a hairline crack by the nut. Should I be concerned with this? It was in the platinum room at GC so who knows what's been happening to it.

I doubt the crack is structural but I'm guessing it's going to bug you to no end. Take it back.
 
Thanks DrKev. I sent the picture to CS and their opinion was that it looked like the crack below the nut was likely in the wood. It all added up to return time so I parted ways with her this evening. Not gonna detail everything but lets just say the whole experience of bringing that beauty home was less than ideal in so many ways that I'm ok with all this. The wall looks odd without it hanging there but my JP6 LE Buttercream was happy to reclaim it's hook.
