Looking for something my kid can tear up, and put back together. Cheap is good. But he needs something that has the ability to stay in tune with some work.

$250 - $750 range depending on number of necks, abuse, cables or rods, missing parts. I don't want a multi cord... but an old beat up Fender 400 or 800, ZB, Maverick, Lil Bud, those may all work for him.
My son is 8 years old, and big enough for a real steel. I made him a 6 string 3 pedal 1 knee, mini steel when he was 4 and he tore it apart. Now that he can play some guitar and has the genuine interest... He needs a decent steel to get him going.
I have a bunch of amps and guitars, I would gladly make a trade for a higher quality steel. But he needs something that I can make stay in tune, so he doesn't lose interest. Thats the main issue for him with guitar, once it goes out of tune he drops it and grabs a football.
here's a list of stuff I may trade or sell:
Nashville 1000 $350
the 400 is beat up, I loaned it to Tom Irwin, so I don't have it here but I'll take $200 for it.
Ovation 1986 Gold everything and stereo Acoustic Electric with HSC (the electronics are not working, maybe the battery... I don't know) $400 (it's been repaired, the bridge popped up a long time ago, but now it playes like butter... and sounds great too)
Delta Jumbo cutaway , maple acoustic electric with HSC. This is a brand new guitar. I used it for one radio tour with Trent Willmon. It was played maybe ten times in 3 days. I have 5 acoustics and really just want to sell all these extras I don't use. $500 it's a beautiful guitar with a very nice bowed bookmatched back. And the action is really really low (I used it for lead work for the radio tour)
Galveston reso, electric acoustic. $175 I used this for some CMA shows a couple years ago with Jace Everett... it's been sitting ever since!
Brand New Stagg strat style / Jackson style electric... never played, still has the tags on it. $150
I also have a brand new Stagg bass still in the box, I'll take $150 for it as well.
I had a music store in Waverly for a while and the Stagg stuff is new, but not sold stock from the store... which closed in Jan.
