Take Goodwill’s example! It took me ten minutes to unbox this but I’m glad because it meant my item was safe and well-protected during shipping.
There’s some nasty scratches on the side of the lower body and a few chips in the finish of the headstock, but overall I’m pretty pleased with it.
Replacement parts ran me about $80 + tax, but according to the reviews I read, once the parts are replaced I’ll have a pretty nice guitar. I’m looking forward to putting it together and learning to play it though it’ll be about a week before the parts and strings get here. I’ll probably sign up for a group class at Guitar Center to help myself get a feel for things.
And believe me when I say I am done buying instruments for now! Hopefully for a while! hehe
It looks so lovely! Can’t wait to see it restored 🙂
I fell in love with the artwork even though I have no idea how to play guitar. But I can learn and even if I fail at it, its so pretty to look at! I should have the replacement parts early next week so it won’t be too long. 🙂
