Location: Hot Springs, S.D. | Hi gang. I have a student who has been borrowing his brother's guitar and he'd like to get one of his own. He's on a very limited budget so I was thinking of a Celeb or maybe and Applause. (I had been bidding on an old Matrix today but I lost the bid. :( )
He needs something that plugs in because he is starting to sing (well) and may want to at least do a few open mics. So, if you have an inexpensive electric/acoustic you aren't playing much, please, let me know. Thanks. |

OK, my decrepitude is evident. There is an Applause, passive tone/gain preamp in the Carlos, already. Maybe that makes a difference.
Lemme know if there's any interest.
Also, the model # is CA40-1, Serial #022076, for those most astute & informed in these matters |
