The listing says "would benefit from new strings" You're not kidding lol. Doesn't look like a parlour either Can we have a thread for funny ebay listings?

Hmmm, not so sure about, "This guitar has a uniquely warm tone, sustain, feel and aesthetic that is just not there anymore in more modern counterparts."

Certainly not worth the asking price. As a toy, maybe a tenner, tops.

Lol I couldn't work out if that was a spoof video. He can't seriously suggest that a cheap nasty kid's acoustic is better than a $400 Takamine! The fretboard is a sticker for god's sake,a photo of rosewood

I must confess that I do have one which cost me nowt (came via Freecycle) and sits forgotten in a corner getting dusty. Maybe one day if I am bored I might look into replacing the plastic bridge with a more substantive one, but polishing a turd isn't that rewarding an activity. Seriously I should make it more playable and move it on to someone who wants to learn guitar but can't afford even a Yamaha F310.
