If the seller can include the hardshell case, it's worth the buy it now price of $500 if this is the type of guitar your looking for (mid depth, cutaway, wide neck). The cosmetics are certainly nice. |

Location: SoCal | Ok. Then I'm not the only one who never liked that rosette.
Oddly, the Folklore and Country Artist guitars of this vintage that I've played, never sounded good to me. They both have sounded "tight" for lack of a better word. And in my opinion, the Folklore, to be a true Folklore, should have been a 12 fret, not a 14 fret. |
