Selling-off some Guitars...

Time to thin the herd a bit. Prices are negotiable, and I will trade for guns! I'll let them sit here for a day or two in case there's any interest here, then off to the pickers' classified sites...

1974 Gibson J-50 Deluxe Guitar

Excellent condition, recent pro setup by Danny Roberts at Gibson. This was Danny's personal guitar - the back has been off for brace re-voicing, and the sound & playability are excellent, way better than your basic mid-70s Gibsons. Natural finish, solid Sitka top, solid mahogany back & sides, rosewood fretboard & bridge. Original tuners. There are no cracks, repaired or otherwise, no issues at all. Finish is excellent. Gibson-branded hardshell case.

$1050 includes shipping to CONUS, trades and reasonable offers considered. Additional pics and info on request.

There are no cracks, repaired or otherwise, no issues at all. Finish is excellent. Original hardshell case.

Late-70s Takamine F-400S 12-string Guitar

Excellent condition. "Lawsuit" Takamine, kinda-sorta copy of a Martin D12-35 (The takamine has a two-piece back, rather than a D12-35's three-piece). Solid Sitka top, laminated rosewood back & sides, rosewood fretboard & bridge. Gold-plated six-on-a-plate tuners. There are no cracks, repaired or otherwise, no issues at all. Finish is excellent. Piezo pickup and endpin jack installed. Original softshell case.

Funny thing.

For my little dab of home playing, I figured I needed one nice acoustic, and one nice solid-body electic. Almost as if by magic, I look around and have two accoustics, one accoustic-electric, and three solid-bodies. How does that happen?:-D

Beautifull stuff, Boge, but in the modern world, if a guitar spends 24 hours in my smoker's house, it's ruined for life, and worth zero. I guess I had better die with what I have, and not throw away any more money.

Too bad, I KNOW you got some tradin' stock! (nm)

Me?

I have a thing or two in the safe, which is too small to crawl into and smoke, so it's all good stuff. I suppose I could take a dump in this $1500 Taylor guitar, and that would make it smell all better for some lace-panty city feller to consider buying it.:-D

I meant GUNS, but now that you mention it...

...some of us don't mind geetars from smoky homes. Gives 'em character. A pal of mine has a '50s Martin D-18 that spent so much time in smoky bars that the whole guitar is dark brown. Sounds like a cannon! (that's good)

Yassir.

Well, Boge, I never figgered you for no lace-panties city feller anyway.:-D I knew you meant guns, and the Taylor isn't going anywhere, my heirs will have to deal with it. Until I was 40 years old, I thought the headstock on my geetar was a place to hold cigarettes during songs.

It does work perfectly for that! (nm)
