Selling bunches of guitars, basses, and a mandolin. Some are my personal guitars which belonged to me or my children, and one is from my instrument business. Described and priced individually below. Available for pickup in Dry Ridge, KY. Sometimes in Florence as well. Shipping theoretically possible but a bit on the expensive side. Available ONLY with guitar purchase, we also have used and new guitar stands, straps, gig bags, strings, cords, and perhaps other accessories so you can add a bunch of fun stuff under the Christmas tree in addition to a new guitar!
SOLD 1) $200 Silvertone SSLB-11 CBL4-string electric bass. Purple. Good condition with small scratches and dings, but still looks great. Electronics work fine. Strings have a little surface rust by the tuners but the playing surfaces are good. Strap, new cord and new ProTec gig bag included. A great beginner bass that was made by Samick, and was roughly $300 when they were new.
SOLD 2) $100 Rogue A-style mandolin. Good condition with moderate dings and wear. The strings are a couple years old and playable, but should be replaced. A great little learner mandolin! Strap included.
3) $300 Samick 5-string electric bass. Red. This was used forever in church, and is a reliable, great-playing instrument. Excellent condition with just the tiniest marks and wear. Electronics work fine. I pulled the old strings off to clean it, and didn't see a reason to put the included, brand new Ernie Ball strings on it in case someone wants a different set. Brand new PigHog braided cord (about $60) and new ProTec strap also included, along with a used but very good Fender gig bag. If you want the bass alone, I'd let it go for $275, but the extra stuff makes for good stocking stuffers!
SOLD 4) $225 Fender Squier Affinity Stratocaster electric guitar. Black. Includes tuner, strap, new strings and Epiphone gig bag. Excellent condition with just very small marks. I don't have the whammy bar for this, but their available all over the plays for just a few bucks. Electronics work fine. A great entry-level electric guitar!
SOLD 5) $125 Mark II electric guitar. Blue. Good condition with just minor wear. This is a smaller electric—great for younger kids who aren't quite ready for a full-size instrument. (My seven-year-old son could play this easily.) A great little beginner guitar, plays great, not a toy! Comes with strap, cord and new strings.
SOLD 6) $150 Washburn WA90CE VSB acoustic-electric cutaway guitar. Vintage sunburst. Good structural condition with lots of dings and scratches. Electronics work fine. Built-in tuner. Active electronics—needs a 9V battery. I restrung this almost exactly a year ago. Includes strap, cord, and Alvarez hard case. If you want the guitar only, I'd let it go for $100, and we probably have other gig bags for sale which would fit it. A great, entry-level guitar which will get you plugged in at church or elsewhere!
7) $1,200 Exceptional Takamine EAN10C acoustic-electric cutaway guitar. This is one of my all-time favorites with a cedar top, mahogany sides, compensated saddle, and gorgeous tuners. A smooth and sweet-sounding guitar, great for recording. Excellent condition with maybe one tiny ding on the entire instrument. Active electronics with built-in tuner, work fine. Includes a very nice Levy's (?) leather strap, new Elixer strings and original Takamine hardshell case. This one belongs to my business, and we do have to collect sales tax.
8) $2,899 2022 Taylor 614CE Builder's Edition acoustic-electric guitar. Made in California. Can't call it mint since the tags and case candy is missing, but this thing is absolutely flawless. $3,999 new, and as new and nice as you could possibly hope to find anywhere!
SOLD 9) $350 Washburn AB10 acoustic-electric bass. Cutaway, four-string. Very good condition with some very tiny marks and a crack which is in the finish only, not the actual wood. Electronics work fine, plays great. I bought this to play along with my kids without having to plug in, but they all had the nerve to grow up and move out. Perfect for church, school or just mugging along with the radio to improve your skills. Includes original hardshell case.
