OK - I'm dreaming here - but I figured I'd ask....I need a beater to play around the dogs, cats, and in the snow on the porch. Looking for nylon string, deep bowl classical....older broken in model...with mojo and sustain...non cutaway...don;t care about scratches ...just need it solid, and to sound great. 2" or 1 7/8 - doesn;t matter...curved or flat - doesn't matter. I don;t care if it is an A/E or not....I have Shafer's old EA63 to plug in which is phenomenal...prefer sunburst on body and on slotted headstock....the darker the sunburst the better...don't really need a case except for shipping...I'm thinking 3 hunnert or so....will also send fiddy to OFC to keep the Al fund going....Is it out there...and should I keep dreaming?

I have exactly what you are describing, seesquare knows more of its history. I believe I have a case... let's say shipping plus $100 and it's yours!

character, yes! but very sound.

I agree. The dogs will be pleased!
Good deal, Mark. Jump on it.
FYI, I have an Academy, blond top (No, Steve, it's not the Blue Moon Academy) that's impervious to the weather, with case, pictured in the BFLG folder, if that's an option, but it's a bit more @ $150, with shipping.

Looking good.. what model? Is it a deep bowl? I like the Academy idea too...they are better than they should be...any availability out there that is a sunburst ...anybody....anybody...Bueller...I let it run a day or too...but mwoody...you are a highly probable...will pm in a day or so

If memory serves, I believe that MWoody critter is a 1616, deepbowl, volume-only.
Mine is a KA-17, unamplified.

Looked it up. That is a 1616, and it's name is Lazarus.
We're the BFLG. Go figure.

Reduce, re-use, recycle, re-sell, remember you had it...

No case, gig bag only and it has a faded rectangle tag. Sounds and plays great. Been through hell and back.

OK, Mike. Seeing as the top needs attention, anyway, do a sunburst on it, before you send it!
(I'm pretty generous with other peoples' time-&-talents)

Sounds to me like it's going to be a can of black spray paint with the guitar held at arms length.....

So is MWoody's classical getting bought? If not, I may want it for myself. I'm deferring to any deal currently in progress of course.

K cool. It's in his outbox until he opens it. If nothing happens, then we have a backup....as if I need another guitar.
