That's a really nice guitar for $500. All solid wood, and a great tone. JB should buy it I reckon.Molly wrote: ↑Tue Feb 22, 2022 8:14 am I'm packing my stuff to send overseas. I keep looking at my ex-Oleg Walden Concorda and wondering if I should just sell it. Owes me $500 if memory serves, and I definitely prefer it to the Taylor it replaced.
Anybody in the market?
It's supposed to be getting packed this evening actually so I suppose this is a very short-notice thing.

Plenty of different models and woods to choose from, and all on the smaller side (00 or 000). You need to buy from overseas though, I don’t think NZ has an importer. These are so much better than the cheap Martins.

For sure, but I’m not going to buy his guitar out of pity!

Thoughts on the Taylor GS mini? I really like the sound of the mahogany one…

I have the mahogany one, it is indeed a great guitar.
(But not as great as that Walden you could get from Molly, for less money)
