spinynorman Posted July 5, 2009 Share Posted July 5, 2009 (edited) I'm not quite sure how I feel about this, so I'm putting it up tentatively to see if there's any level of interest. It's a Gibson J50 dreadnaught style acoustic guitar, which I've had since new in 1973. If it was a few years older and the round-shouldered version, it would be worth 3 figures, but as it is I think it should fetch between £700-£750. It plays well, no technical problems, just cosmetic finish checking on the body varnish and pick scrapes round the sound hole. It has a hard case which came with it, but isn't Gibson badged. Gibson fanatics are snooty about the square shoulders, but to me it has a big, full sound. Problem is I really don't play guitar very well and since I took up bass it's rarely been out of the case. However it has some sentimental value, hence the slight hesitation. Anyone fancy it? Edited July 5, 2009 by spinynorman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinynorman Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 So, I'm taking that as no interest. But is that really no interest, or interest, but not at that price. If this is going to end up on eBay after all, I'd like an idea of how much disappointment I'm letting myself in for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
