Low shipping (to NYC, at least) as well.

Location: boulder | I just emailed seller some questions. I think the stripe is a repair of split seam, but we will see what seller says. |

Location: boulder | Hi,
just a follow up. seller emailed back as well as posting question on listing. in short says wood strip is inlaid as well. me thinks maybe when bridge was replaced, extra wood strip was added over seam. but, you know, i haven't really a clue :rolleyes: |

You're probably right about the repairs, but it still looks nice. I really like the wood grain on the neck. Also, the case needs replacing.

Location: SoCal | the Balladeer Deluxe that I just got in (?1969, shiny bowl) has a couple of finish cracks and cleanup to work on but the voice is gorgeous even with the old strings. and, the shiny bowl is special, unique.
depending on the condition, definitely a model worth acquiring. |
