Serial number # 016882 /or the first number could be the letter O on white rectangle label above the silver foil label at neck of guitar. Six string. Natural color body that is darker around the edges. White and black design around sound hole. | ||

Then post the Link address here. As to the model... A 1111 is a Balladeer. -6 means White. By the serial number it seems to be around 1973. Serial Number List HERE is a whole section for you to peruse. | ||

Years of smoky rooms will do that.

(So that takes you to YOUR page, but anybody else it takes them to THEIR page) When you are at your photo page in Photo bucket, off to the right you will see Four Choices under the heading SHARE THIS PHOTO... One sez "Direct" and it is a link that looks like this: http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t59/arthurseery/1127GC%20from%20... When someone clicks it they be taken to your photo. One sez "HTML" and it will look like this: I had already "re-sized" that image to 500 width. If you do not re-size the image it will come out HUGE. If you are not sure, just use the "Direct" link. Hope that helps... | ||
