FENDER DG 3 Right Hand Player 6 string acoustic.

Here with have a fine example of a quality FENDER DG-3 Guitar.  Now showing signs of being well used and sporting blemishes and bruises through use and wear and plenty of perfomances.  Having just got this in. Cleaning up and inspecting, it looked promising enought to re-string.  I've replaced the worn Bridge saddle, re-strung and set up.  A little bit of a clean up and so on.   This is now a beautiful player and tone is as such of a New FENDER..It really does have a Nice and  True Ring with a Generous full reaction to however way you choose to play it. Full depth in volume. 

However, as well as the guitar reacts and performs with ease to playing, it is still cosmetically a bit of a rough diamond.  So i have valued it as such.

This guitar would be well suited as a "Busker" or equally good as a practice-composing go-to instrument.  Or just as well as an outdoor performer, such as street performing. Pub Garden / festival / camp-fire party playing .  Or would do very nicely for the player who is just taking up the guitar.  With ease of playing and producing a good sound, ideal for progression.  Much better to learn on, rather from a shop bought expensive Replica Budget guitar which sounds  and plays with no substance.

Tis guitar has now been cleaned and looks fairly respectable.  Nw quality strings and a bone saddle introduced with a set-up for a easy to manage low action.  Come and try it.  No obligation to buy.  Its a cheap and cheerfull guitar,  But its a FENDER DG-3 cheap and cheerfull guitar.

NORLIN, LINCOLNWOOD,ILLINOIS.  Made in Taiwan Ser:782371

Not the pretiest guitar cosmetically, would benefit from some light restoration to revive its stature or an nice cheap n cheerfull festival/camping/party useable instrument. The previous owner seems to have dabbeld and made a bit of a mess.  There is laquer overspray to the front of the guitar and signs that an efforrt was made to rub down the wood....hence the poor quality finish.  The machine heads have been changed and transducer pickups have peen placed to the soundboard, although  they don't sem to be positioned correctly.  There is a Jack input combined with the Strap Button...thats neat......The guitar plays ok and sounds ok.  The action is low and seasy. So, suitable for the above mentioned uses or as a great starter, as it sounds as an Epiphone should .  Or for restoration..with a good prepearation and finish along with a new sadle, machine heads etc this could once again look nice and respectable.

This work may be carried out in the future when circumstances permit.  But for now, Ihave put some nice, quality light gauge strings on and  selling "A-Is" ..

So, we have a semi acoustic Epiphone PR200.  Plays and sounds well, just let down by cosmetics. Ay trial playing and inspection welcome * week day mornings )  or Ad may be revised as and when work is completed.

Manhattan. 6string Right Hand Player £49.99

Budget Used Guitars.

The MANHATTAN.  Great sound from a modest looking guitar. A nice easy player and sfter just penewing the strings, it really has a nice tone.  A few little marks, but this in no way spoils the playability.  Anice economically priced guitar to have around.  This the MANHATTEN .  Handcrafted from The Academy of Music.

E400 Encore elec/acoustic. £39.99

Budget Used Guitars:   This is an Encore semi Acoustic E400. In good playing performance.  A bit rough around the edges but plays well acoustically and amplified.  New strings fitted.

WESTFIELD WF400N £ 59.99

Yep !!   This is definetly one for putting in a gig-bag and adding to requirements for those festival campfire evenings with friends.  Great easy playing guitar.  Has very few blemishes, hardly any noticeable.  Above all, it plays easy and sounds as it should.  Although, I think, maybe it would benefit the addition of a Pickup...then it would make a nice little performing guitar with Busking in mind or outdoor events.  At this price you can keep it in a rucksak type gig-bag , leave it in the camper wagon and use as and when without too much worry of damage as it isnt being sold by me at an extortionate price, although it probably would cost more from a second hand store.  If I decide to add a pickup etc, the price will be adjusted ..but for now, it is "as-is".  New strings have recently been added.  Come try it out

E400 - 12 String ENCORE

Pleas awat or enquire for full description - slight hairline crack showing in headstock but has not shown structural degeneration and dors and will not alter my valuation.  But be aware of this description statement if purchasing. I am quite happy and have been happy to use it for the last year or so.  It has had this blemish to its otherwise good condition for ages and has not grown in size.  Come try, test before you decide. I am happy to hang on to it as it plays and sounds as good as and if not ..better than others three times the price.  It is what it is..It may be ,  the next time you see thiguiar Ad ..a headstock Brace and a pick-up introduced and used as a "Performing" guitar

MARLIN MF /CAE Model.  I have owned this one from new .  Purchased for me around 1981.  It has in No Way been modified as some people do with Upgrading the Nut and Saddle wwith bone upgrades.  It plays and sound ok for home use and that is all it has been used for.  If you wanted to upgrade the 42mm nut and replace the saddle as wel...along with it already being a well seasoned guitar It would enhance the tone.  Not sure of the soundboard wood...maybe cedar, maybe spruce.  There are No Knocks, dents or any nasty scratches, just aged charecter and usual blemishes.  This is a sturdy model from MARLIN.  Made in Korea early or before 198-.  New lights were fitted.  If anyone does want the saddle and Nut upgraded and a set - up  it would have to be added to the present price. But come and try it.  It works fine with Amp and The pickup and vol/tone controll pots are original too.  It is as it is at the price shown 

*Soundhole p/up introduced*Now set-up  to a nice low action*

The Marlin, I'm pretty sure was the Budget Guitar from Hohner of its time. Having read that they were manufactured in Korea, China and Wales!!! This is manufactured in Korea as a copy for better known brand .....But as you will find.  Yesterdays Budget Guitars have become todays better quality guitars as time has proved this on.Better value than some of todays Budget priced Guitars.  My view.

HOYER 12 string R H player

Totally authentic. Totally playable.  Stays in tune and tunes easily, Just fitted new strings and tuned and held ou . Then dropped a pitch for peace of mind. Its still in tune now.  No stress faults, Neck, bridge ok  No bellying, no neck sinkining No cracks apart from a little laquer split showing.  But it is totally authentic Machine heads are original....I changed the strings as soon as i got it...and none of them show any signs of tension stress.....Thre are a couple of blemishes, But it plays so well.  This model has often been show wit the users of fame, such as Elvis...movies and live performance recording show him playing this actual model (not this actual guitar)  But he had a pick-up and controll pots introduced.....Do you add a sound pick up...do you try to replicate the Elvis model or do you keep it authentic.  Leaving price open for now untill I decide OR you decide for me with an offer.....Look it up    12 STRING  authentic 1960's HOYER......More pics available or if you're near,, come try it
