This guitar is kind've a mystery guitar. I'm not really sure if it is indeed a "custom" balladeer. I just want to get the money I have in it.

All I know is that I bought this guitar from my uncle. And he had traded a 50's something Les Paul straight across to a guitar store owner for this guitar. This was supposedly the guitar of John Dillon of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils. It plays beautifully and sounds great. I'm not sure what kind've pickup system is in it. But it works fine.

There are some scuffs and dings on the guitar, but overall it's in pretty good shape. Included is what looks like the original hardshell case.

I'm asking $600 plus whatever shipping would be.

I believe the way to tell if it is a custom is whether or not it has diamond inlay on the fretboard. If it's just dot, it's a standard balladeer, and the price will probably need to be lowered by at least $100.

It has the diamond inlays, so then it is indeed a Custom Balladeer. Serial #156022.

I have several pictures ready to email if anyone would like to see.
