have you got enough relief in the neck ( slightly concave instead of dead straight or convex) look down the edge of the fingerboard from the headstock to the bridge to observe this . if thats ok the  frets need dressing ..this is a job for a git technician ..but you can tackle it yourself with the proper tools and care
have a look on youtube for some info on it

learn your chords then you can start singing the melody of the song and playing the chords that fit the melody best..since theres no written music anywhere ?..its just a case of trial and error..you'll know when the chord is right by just listening..if you start with Em the rest of the chords will be relatively simple..keep practicing and have a look on youtube for beginners lessons...i shouldn't worry about the song just yet..practice your chords and make sure you know the names of the chords you're playing....enter the old addage ' dont run before you can walk ' most important of all.....keep practicing

what sort of help do you need?...how far progressed on the guitar are you?
i cant tab the song because i dont know it..is the indian music written down anywhere?

can you post your vocal?

what do you need to play the chords or the melody?

if it was me ..i would repair the crack and fit edging ...job done
you might spend an arm and a leg ( in time ) doing a great aesthetic repair ..then the amp
might fail ( only might ) + on its first night out you might drop it down a flight of stairs...back to go

theres one thing for sure though ....once the dust settles and the novelty wears off ..you'll  wonder
what all the fuss was about

anyway best of luck with your route ..and post the repair

what does it sound like ...post a clip

job done for <£15 and if you shop around probably less than a £5er

all i would have said is that the damage looks very repairable ( depending on your diy skills )
me personally i would try and get as much compensation for the loss in value and repair it myself
that way i would finish up with a fully functional £250 amp for £50..( and apart from the dent it looks in
pretty good nick )

split wood is very repairable with glue and clamps and dents can be filled with wood filler it doesn't seem
any more serious than that to me looking at the pic...and of course assuming the electrics haven't been compromised

scooby wrote "compensate me for the full value of the amp and their carriage charge"

so what is the full value of the amp..is it £125 ( s/h value) ???
personally if the amp is exactly what you want go for the other option ..assuming it is electrically
sound....how bad is the damage?

post a picture of the damage

i should't think it would be inherently noisy ( how noisy is it )
anyway a check over by somebody what knows what they're doing wouldn't go amiss
dont know the london area ..so cant suggest anyone..perhaps the local music shop
will have some contacts

hi rea...welcome to the forum.....nice no nonsense tutorials ( only seen the first one yet though )
but its really down to the knuckle and great advice for any beginner ( and beyond )..your first lesson ( chromatic scale and technique ) is spot on

loads of info on youtube

but rule of thumb... never wax anything with a grain in it
