I selected this now-vintage Custom Balladeer 30 years ago from the huge stock at James Bern's Music in Mpls. It's been in my closet for the last 12 years with 6 other guitars, with good humidity, and time to clear out.

Gorgeous. Plays superbly - pro setup, bone nut & bridge, low action, no buzz. HS case. You know the drill. SN 137241.



Some minor cosmetics, but no finish cracks or structural issuaes at all. It deserves to be loved and played.

Detailed pictures can be seen here:

What seems fair? $300 plus shipping seems like a good deal for both sides from what I can tell.

Thanks for the kind words and emails. After 30 years of owning this guitar I'm a bit heart-sick, but I know it's going to a better place :-)
